  Question
  How can I treat my RNA sample before RT-PCR to eliminate DNA contamination?
  Answer
  Combine 1 µg total RNA, 1 µl 10X DNAse I buffer (200 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.4),500 mM KCl, 20 mM MgCl2), 1 µl DNAse I, Amplification Grade, 1 unit/µl and DEPC treated water to 10 µl. Incubate for 15 min at room temperature. Inactivate by adding 1 µl of 25 mM EDTA and heat for 10 min at 65 C. Note: 1 unit of DNAse I should be enough to treat up to ~10 µg of RNA.
