Best Answer

EDTA is dissolved only at pH8. EDTA serves as an important chelating agent to kill the contaminating DNAses. Also this is close to the physoological pH which is pH7.

What is the use of guanidine isothiocyanate and NaOAc in the isolation of RNA?

Guanidine isothiocyanate helps denature proteins from the RNA to allow them to be separated from protein for the best isolation of nucleic acids from proteins (can collect all 3 if using TRIzol like reagents)NAoAc (sodium acetate) usually in 3M/pH8 is used later in the steps for nucleic acid isolation as the salt for ethanol precipitation. If you are going to be doing RNA transcription off of DNA templates that you are precipitating, it is best to use Nh4oAC (ammonium acetate) as the ion is nicer to RNA polymerases once templates are cleaned and being transcribed.
