Abstract

This paper presents a high-speed RNA microextractor for the direct isolation of RNA from blood lysate using magnetic oligo(dT) beads. The extraction is performed through lateral magnetophoresis, which is induced by a ferromagnetic wire array inlaid. With this RNA microextractor, more than 80% of the magnetic beads could be separated at a flow rate up to 20 ml/h, and the overall extraction procedure was completed within 1 min. The absorbance ratio of RNA to protein(A260/A280) was greater than 1.7, indicating that the extraction technique yields pure RNA. The feasibility of using this technique in reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction procedures was investigated by cDNA synthesis and PCR processes. The results confirmed that the RNA microextractor is a practical device for easy, fast, and high-precision RT-PCR using minimal amounts of reagent.

본 논문에서는 올리고-dT 자성입자와 측면방향 자기영동 기술을 기반으로 하는 초고속 RNA 추출칩을 소개한다. 센자성 와이어에 유도된 고구배자장에 의해 RNA가 결합된 올리고-dT 자성입자를 분리함으로써 용해된 혈액으로부터 고속으로 RNA를 추출하였다. 유속이 20 ml/h까지 자성입자를 80% 이상의 효율로 분리할 수 있었으며, 분리시간은 총 1분 이내였다. 추출된 시료로부터 단백질에 대한 RNA 흡광비율(absorbance ratio of RNA to protein: A260/A280)이 1.7 이상임을 확인하였고, 따라서 추출된 RNA가 매우 순수함을 보였다. 추출된 RNA를 사용하여 cDNA 합성과 PCR을 수행하였으며, 이로부터 개발된 초고속 RNA 추출칩이 적은 양의 시료만으로 간편하며 빠르고 정교한 RT-PCR을 수행하는데 실용적임을 확인하였다.
