Pancreas RNA extraction - improve protocol needed (Apr/30/2009 )

We are going to have RNA extract from pancreas, the major source of RNase production, and the first try was not looking very good.

Is there anyone have improved RNA extraction protocol from this difficult tissue?

Hello,

I've had success using the protocol outlined in the following paper:

Li D, Ren W, Wang X, Wang F, Gao Y, Ning Q, Han Y, Song T, Lu S. A Modified Method using TRIzol Reagent and Liquid Nitrogen Produces High-Quality RNA from Rat Pancreas. Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2008 Oct 18. .

Best of luck!
