I am making a library for which it is essential to purify any RNA which is greater than 60-70nt and get rid of anything below that. Is there any column or bead based system that can purify all fragment above this cut-off without adding any size bias?

Actually, I am planning to do it after linker ligation. I can definitely select out anything smaller than that but I could not find any system to do that. Most systems purify RNA >200nt. I could use Millipore's cut-off filters but haven't heard if anybody used them before for this purpose

Gel purification will be difficult in my case because I'm not looking for a particular size.
I've been researching about this and contacted several companies, here is what I found. Clontech has a set of gel filtration columns called "CHROMASPIN" columns. They come in different cut-off sizes, like CHROMASPIN 10, 100, 200, 400, 1000 etc. These columns are RNase free and available in TE or DEPC water. Apart from these, the Qiagen RNeasy (MinElute kit) columns can also be used for size selecting RNA. These columns bind to everything >200nt according to standard protocol, however, smaller RNA can also be bound by increasing the volume of ethanol. The Agencourt RNA clean XP beads are good for high yield, but the bind to relatively larger RNAs. I'm sure there are other methods available like the Amicon's filtration devices, however, I found the CHROMASPIN columns the most useful if they work well

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
