The present application relates to the technical field of
RNA extraction, and particularly relates to a pretreatment
reagent, a method and a kit for
RNA purification of
whole blood samples. By introducing hydrophobic DESs as the core pretreatment component, the DESs are mixed with the
whole blood sample in advance, the DESs form an independent phase layer after
centrifugation by using the unique physicochemical properties, and the liposoluble
drug components, inflammatory proteins and pigments are selectively extracted to the hydrophobic DESs phase and the
RNA is preliminarily purified; the upper water phase of the pretreatment and purification is taken and added into a
lysis solution containing a chaotropic salt to fully release the
nucleic acid, and DNase I is introduced for
digestion. The present application combines the pretreatment of hydrophobic DESs and the
digestion of DNase I, and is used in combination with PVP (targeting adsorption of residual pigments and phenolic compounds), reduces the impurities of the
lysis system through the front-end pretreatment, creates a low-interference and high-efficiency purification environment for the specific binding of RNA by the magnetic beads, and forms a synergistic removal network for the interference of complex samples.
