title: Evaluation of eight RNA isolation methods for transcriptional analysis in Campylobacter jejuni.
abstract: DNA-free RNA samples are essential to investigate gene regulation using real-time RT-PCR. This study evaluated eight RNA isolation methods in combination with TURBO DNase treatment and acid phenol extractions for their ability to produce DNA-free RNA from Campylobacter jejuni strains.
