2. guanidinium-acid-phenol method
• Guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction method is
often referred to as a conventional method of RNA isolation
• known as the Trizol method of RNA isolation (Guanidinium
thiocyanate and phenol mixture is popularly known as Trizol reagent)
• the sample is treated with :
❑guanidinium isothiocyanate
❑ acidic phenol
❑ chloroform

13. Advantages Disadvantages
High yield of RNA Compared to
other RNA isolation protocols
• Time consuming
This method is particularly
advantageous in situations
where cells or tissues are
enriched for endogenous
RNases
• Many harmful chemicals compared
to column based methods
