Superscript 3 reverse transcriptase synthesis system

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in Canada

The SuperScript III reverse transcriptase synthesis system is a laboratory instrument designed for the enzymatic conversion of RNA into complementary DNA (cDNA). It provides a reliable and efficient method for the reverse transcription of RNA into single-stranded cDNA, which can then be used for various downstream applications, such as gene expression analysis, RT-PCR, and cDNA library construction.

1 μg of bacterial RNA was reverse transcribed to generate cDNA using random hexamers and the Superscript III Reverse Transcriptase Synthesis System (Invitrogen 18080051) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. qPCR was performed with primers annealing to internal regions of the target genes (Supplementary Table S1) using SYBR™ Green PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems 4309155) on a QuantStudio 6 Flex Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). Data was obtained through QuantStudio Real-Time PCR Software v1.3. Relative mRNA abundances were
Ratio=Effciency(target)CT(target,untreated)CT(target,treated)Effciency(ref)CT(ref,untreated)CT(ref,treated)calculated by the following equation using the 16S rRNA gene [33 (link)] to normalize the results:

RNA was isolated from cardiac extracts using TRI reagent (Sigma). First-strand cDNA was synthesized from total RNA using the SuperScript III reverse transcriptase synthesis system (Invitrogen). Real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed with the ABI Prism 7900 Sequence Detection System using TaqMan Gene Expression Assays and TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems). Relative levels of mRNA transcripts were quantified using the 2-ΔCt method and normalized to levels of peptidyl-prolyl isomerase A (Ppia-cyclophilin) RNA.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
