I am sure but as I heard that somebody had the same problem in our university,
I think that some qPCR machines are not compatible with evagreen.
we use this machine and works well with evagreen:

althogh it is not durable.

Today I did some RNA extraction and I found that if you mix Trizol or RNAzol with column base kits you have a cleaner RNA with less tendency for decreasing RNA.
RNAzol + Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit gave me the cleanest RNA. I mean Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit gave me clean(260/280= 2.08, 260/230=2.11) RNA but after 30 minutes I had a lot of decrease of RNA. But in RNAzol + Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit, Total RNA decreased from 98 to 96 microgram, but in Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit alone I saw a decrease from 102 to 80.
I suggest you to do a RNA extraction first by RNAzol (it is much more cheaper than Trizol www.mrcgene.com/rnazol.htm )
, then after twice washing its RNA pelete (I suggest moving RNA pellete to new vial between these two washing steps) by 70-75 % ethanol, start using a column base kits to clean it again.
I have used RNeasy (Plus). It is completely similar to Aurum Total RNA Mini Kit but more expensive.
They start with adding 350 ul lysis buffer contanning 1 % Mercaotpethanol. Then adding 350 ul 70-75 % ethanol and passing it through a column and then washing and eluting.

A colony origins from one to more than 100 bacteria.
Use a inoculating turntable, and an Ultrasonic bath(Jewelry Cleaner) to disociate bateria from each other.
