Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Which negative control Dicer-substrate siRNA (DsiRNA) should I choose, DS NC1 or DS ScrambledNeg?

Nov 18, 2016, 15:31 PM
Question : Which negative control Dicer-substrate siRNA (DsiRNA) should I choose, DS NC1 or DS ScrambledNeg?
We currently offer 2 nonsilencing, negative control DsiRNAs that do not recognize any sequences in human, mouse, or rat transcriptomes, a nontargeting DsiRNA (DS NC1) and a DsiRNA with a scrambled sequence (DS ScrambledNeg). 

We strongly recommend using the DS NC1 negative control duplex. This has been extensively bioinformatically assessed, and has no activity in human, mouse, and rat cells. The DS ScrambledNeg sequence is an older control that has been kept as a legacy product for customers who have had success with it in their cell lines.
