Components

We offers pre-designed sets of 3 different target-specific siRNA oligo duplexes of human EGFR gene. Each vial contains 5 nmol of lyophilized siRNA. The duplexes can be transfected individually or pooled together to achieve knockdown of the target gene, which is most commonly assessed by qPCR or western blot.

Storage Conditions

Shipped at 4 °C. Store at -20 °C for one year.

Specificity

EGFR siRNA (Human) is a target-specific 19-23 nt siRNA oligo duplexes designed to knock down gene expression.

NCBI Gene Symbol

EGFR

Quality Control

Oligonucleotide synthesis is monitored base by base through trityl analysis to ensure appropriate coupling efficiency. The oligo is subsequently purified by affinity-solid phase extraction. The annealed RNA duplex is further analyzed by mass spectrometry to verify the exact composition of the duplex. Each lot is compared to the previous lot by mass spectrometry to ensure maximum lot-to-lot consistency.
