which RNase are you using? what about micrococcal nuclease? this is
calcium-dependent, so its inactivated by excess EDTA and EGTA.
another non-phenol way to kill RNases is with GTC. this is probably
ambions trick, too.
other option: RNase A, which is RNasin-sensitive (although this will
make your experiment pretty expensive)
a very attractive option: don't use radioactive RNA. use DIG-labeled
RNA instead. no radioactive waste!
Good luck,
