RiboGrip® Glycerol-Free RNase Inhibitor (220 U/µl)
RiboGrip® Glycerol-Free RNase Inhibitor (220 U/µl) is an in silico-designed protein-based ribonuclease inhibitor, which inactivates RNase A, RNase B and RNase C. RiboGrip® inhibits the activity of ribonuclease A by noncovalently binding in a non-competitive mode at a ratio of 1:1. It is primarily used to prevent RNA degradation by contaminating RNases in various assays that use RNA sample materials, such as first-strand cDNA synthesis, RT-(q)PCR, RT-LAMP, etc. RiboGrip® also includes a genetic modification - Stability TAG - a proprietary and patented polypeptide stabilization technology. Stability TAG makes RiboGrip® extremely tolerant to higher temperatures and enables room temperature shipping as well as effective use in assays requiring high incubation temperatures. Highly concentrated 220 U/µl and glycerol-free formulation ensures compatibility with lyophilization and air-drying.

-20°C until Expiry Date; 4°C for 1 months; Freeze-thaw stability: 10 cycles
Unit definition: One unit is defined as the amount of protein required to inhibit the activity of 5 ng of RNAse A by 50%. Activity is measured by the inhibition of hydrolysis of cytidine 2',3'‐cyclic monophosphate by RNase A.
