Nuclease-Free Water (Non-DEPC Treated), IC-5311
Product Introduction
This product is high-purity nuclease-free water that has not been treated with DEPC (diethyl pyrocarbonate). It is specifically designed for molecular biology applications where the absence of RNases and DNases is critical for preserving nucleic acid integrity. The water is purified through deionization, distillation, and ultrafiltration to remove nucleases, nucleic acids, and other contaminants, and is certified free of detectable RNase, DNase, and protease activity. Unlike DEPC-treated water, this product does not contain residual DEPC or its degradation byproducts, making it suitable for applications where DEPC may interfere with sensitive enzymatic reactions or downstream analyses. It is suitable for RNA and DNA applications including reverse transcription, PCR, qPCR, in vitro transcription, nucleic acid dilution and storage, and enzymatic reactions.

Protocol (For Reference Only)
Important: Use aseptic technique and wear gloves when handling to prevent nuclease contamination from skin and laboratory surfaces. Aliquot into smaller volumes for frequent use to minimize contamination risk.
1. RNA Reconstitution and Dilution: Use Nuclease-Free Water to reconstitute RNA pellets following precipitation or column purification, and to dilute RNA samples to desired concentrations for downstream applications.
2. cDNA Synthesis: Use Nuclease-Free Water as the diluent for preparing RNA templates, primer mixes, and master mixes in reverse transcription reactions.
3. PCR and qPCR Setup: Use Nuclease-Free Water as the aqueous component for preparing PCR and qPCR reaction master mixes, adjusting reaction volumes, and diluting primers and probes.
4. In Vitro Transcription: Use Nuclease-Free Water for preparing transcription reaction mixes, diluting RNA polymerases, and resuspending in vitro transcribed RNA products.
5. Enzymatic Reaction Preparation: Use Nuclease-Free Water as the universal diluent for nuclease-sensitive enzymatic reactions including restriction digests, ligations, and nucleic acid labeling procedures.
Precautions
1. Use only certified nuclease-free pipette tips and tubes when handling this product; standard laboratory plasticware may introduce RNase contamination.
2. Aliquot the required volume into a separate sterile tube rather than directly pipetting from the stock bottle to minimize contamination risk.
3. Wear clean gloves and change them frequently when working with RNA samples and this product.
4. This product is non-DEPC treated; for applications requiring DEPC-treated water, use a DEPC-treated product instead.
5. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
FAQ (Simplified)
Q1: What is the difference between DEPC-treated and non-DEPC treated nuclease-free water?
A1: DEPC-treated water uses diethyl pyrocarbonate to inactivate RNases, followed by autoclaving to remove residual DEPC. This product is not DEPC-treated and contains no residual DEPC or degradation byproducts, making it suitable for applications where DEPC may interfere with sensitive enzymatic reactions.
Q2: Is this product suitable for RNA work?
A2: Yes. This product is certified nuclease-free and suitable for RNA applications including reverse transcription, in vitro transcription, and RNA storage.
Q3: How should I store and handle this product to maintain nuclease-free status?
A3: Store at room temperature and handle using aseptic technique. Always use certified nuclease-free pipette tips and tubes. Aliquot working volumes into separate sterile tubes to avoid repeated pipetting from the stock bottle.
Q4: Can I use this product for cell culture?
A4: No. This product is intended for molecular biology applications only and is not a tissue culture grade reagent. For cell culture applications, use a dedicated tissue culture grade water.
