What scales are offered for metabion custom RNA oligonucleotides in single tube format?

Desalted
4 yield ranges based on length-independent delivered quantities from 10-100 nmol for single-stranded oligos from 5-40 nucleotides.

  • ≥ 10 <   25 nmol
  • ≥ 25 <   50 nmol
  • ≥ 50 < 100 nmol
  • ≥ 100 nmol

HPLC-purified
5 yield ranges based on length independent delivered quantities* from 5-400 nmol for oligos from 2-80 nucleotides:

  • ≥    5 <    25 nmol
  • ≥   25 <   50 nmol
  • ≥   50 < 100 nmol
  • ≥ 100 < 200 nmol
  • ≥ 200 < 400 nmol

* Please note that the term “yield range” refers to the final amount of product you will actually receive. Instead, OD260 values are a measure of total nucleotide optical density. Hence, neither purity nor amount of ordered substance are transparently reflected. For simplification and exemplification reasons look at the following:

1 OD of the 20mer 5´cau cgu auu cga ugc uac gu 3´ translates into approximately 5 nmol;

1 OD of the 40mer 5´cau cgu auu cga ugc uac guc auc gua uuc gau gcu acg u 3´ translates into approximately 2.5 nmol.

Therefore, a 1 OD guaranteed amount of delivered product can vary significantly, while metabion´s commitment to delivered yields in nmol for RNAs ranging from 2 to 80 nucleotides does not allow for ambiguity in terms of what you expect and pay for, not even for modified oligos!
