The hypothesis of purification results for group I intron permuted intron‒exon (PIE) system by E-Gel EX Agarose Gels. Splicing reaction by group I intron PIE system can produce several impurities. RNase R can digest a portion of linear RNA and nicked circRNA. Subsequently, HPLC can eliminate most of the fragments except for impurities of the same size. In addition, RNase H is the best option to detect the purity of circRNA products. The pure circRNA products exhibit only one bond and impure circRNA products exhibit two bonds
