G6PDH was amplified using the LightCycler t(9;22) Quantification Kit (see text beside).Figure 4mRNA was purified from different amounts of human white blood cells with the MagNA Pure mRNA HS Kit. The lysates from 2.5 x 107cells and 5 x 107cells were homogenized with the MagNA Lyser Instrument (2x50 seconds with 90 seconds cooling in between) prior to the mRNA purification. G6PDH was amplified using the LightCycler t(9;22) Quantification Kit (see text beside).Figure 5Scalability from 1 x 106cells to 2.5 x 107cells is represented in the graph and the table of the relationship between crossing points and cell numbers.
