Thanks again Bekah. One more quick question. Did you use the MP FastPrep 24 Homogenizer with the lysing tubes, or did you just vortex?

Thank you Bekah! Did you use standard volumes as outlined in the Qiagen kit?

Hello everyone,
Does anyone have a (cheap) RNA isolation protocol for smeg infections? I'd imagine the waxy cell wall would prove difficult for most standard commercially available kits.
Thanks!
