DB Random Hexamers

(DB-1284)

DB Random Hexamers are a mixture of random 6-nucleotide sequences that anneal across the entire length of target RNA molecules, recommended for cDNA synthesis from total RNA or RNA without a poly(A) tail.


Efficiently primes mRNA, siRNA, tRNA and other RNA species, producing a cDNA pool that represents the whole original transcript population. Supplied in two ready-to-use concentrations so you can match primer strength to your RNA input and downstream needs.

Package size

Key Parameters: Same primer mix, two options.

Variant A: 1.25 nmol. Best for routine cDNA synthesis at the recommended 1.25 µM working concentration, pipette directly, no dilution needed, for most standard applications.

Variant B: 6.25 nmol. Best for higher RNA input (up to 5 µg) where maximizing cDNA yield matters, and for preparing your own dilution series to fine-tune primer concentration.

Total RNA input range: 10 pg-5 μg.

Coverage: efficient transcription across the entire length of the target RNA via annealing at multiple sites.

Applications: cDNA synthesis from total RNA, including mRNA, siRNA and tRNA; recommended for RNA without a poly(A) tail.

Recommended concentration range in the cDNA synthesis reaction

DB Random Hexamers recommended concentration:Increasing DB Random Hexamers concentration raises cDNA yield, but very high concentrations can generate shorter cDNA fragments that may interfere with some downstream applications. If your workflow is sensitive to fragment length, stay closer to the 1.25 µM end of the range even when working with higher RNA amounts.
