Quality Control

   MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry

Delivery times

   7-8 Working days

Packaging

   Annealed in solution or not annealed lyophilized

Shipping conditions

   Dry ice (solution) or Room temperature (lyophilized)

Storage conditions

   -20 °C to -70 °C
Store siRNA oligos as a dry pellet at -20°C (or preferably -70°C) in a non-frost free freezer until ready to use. Once resuspended in RNase-free buffer, store at -70°C and avoid contact with RNases. siRNA oligos should be resuspended to a convenient stock concentration (20 to 50 µM) and stored in small aliquots to avoid multiple freeze thaw cycles. When stored under these conditions and using good RNase-free technique, they typically remain stable for 6 months or more. The solution can be freeze-thawed up to 5 times. For long-term storage, siRNA oligos should be dried.

While chemical modification of siRNA is usually not required, certain modifications can sometimes be useful e.g. to increase stability or cellular uptake. The antisense strand must either have a free 5’-OH (by default) or 5’-phosphate terminus. 5’-end modification of the sense strand RNA does not alter the efficiency of silencing. Various fluorescent dyes can be coupled to the 5’-end of the sense strand oligo to track transfection efficiency of the corresponding duplex. Finally, modifying siRNA with cholesterol is used to facilitate tissue / cellular uptake.

Modifications, such as 2’O-methyl RNA, phosphorothioate bonds, LNA® and a variety of other options are also available.

As a consequence, Eurogentec is continuously extending its list of modifications (see table below). If the one you need is not included, please inquire.

All modified siRNAs are based on the 0.2 µmol synthesis scale and extensively purified using the most appropriate purification method. Other scales, overhang chemistry and base contents are available on request.
