Rubins 2003 - Trizol Extraction of Total RNA from PBMCs; 1. Make sure the area is clean and free of any RNases. Keep the samples cold or on ice as much as possible to prevent RNA degradation. Use only RNase free tubes and RNase free, aerosol-barrier pipette tips throughout the whole experiment. 2. Add 1mL of Trizol to the frozen PBMC pellet. 3.
