Invitrogen TRIzol products are referenced in thousands of journal publications, reflecting the trust that molecular biologists have placed in TRIzol Reagent to deliver high-quality, intact RNA from many kinds of biological materials.
TRIzol reagents are offered in several ready-to-use formats. The individual products within the TRIzol reagent family are tailored to isolate total RNA or to simultaneously isolate RNA, DNA, and protein from diverse biological sources, including samples of human, animal, plant, yeast, bacterial, and viral origin.

Meet a great match for TRIzol reagents: Phasemaker Tubes
Using TRIzol reagents just got simpler, thanks to a new best friend. Invitrogen Phasemaker Tubes create a tight, durable seal between the aqueous and organic phase of your TRIzol mix. Phasemaker Tubes don’t compromise the performance of TRIzol reagents, allowing you to easily pipette off the RNA phase. It’s almost too easy.
Save money by purchasing Phasemaker Tubes together with TRIzol, TRIzol LS, or TRIzol Plus reagents, or use them with your existing TRIzol reagent.
The benefits of using Phasemaker Tubes include:
- Higher yield—increase recovery by as much as 30%
- Ease of use—simply use with TRIzol mix, centrifuge, and then easily pipette off the aqueous phase
- Ready-to-use convenience—comes predispensed in 2 mL tubes
- Increased throughput—stable gel seal allows you to maximize the number of samples per run without losing phase separation
