Product Introduction
BlazeTaq™ Probe qPCR mix is designed for highly sensitive and accurate quantitative PCR (qPCR) that uses hydrolysis probes and DNA as starting material. The kit is supplied with a ready-to-use 5X master mix with a hot-start Taq DNA polymerase, dNTP and all optimized buffer components. Tests show that the BlazeTaq™ Probe qPCR Mix is compatible with diverse real-time PCR instruments and outperforms competitors’ products on the sensitivity and specificity of cDNA and genomic DNA detection.
Product details
BlazeTaq™ Probe qPCR Mix allows sensitive and potent target DNA detection and quantification using hydrolysis probes. cDNA or genomic DNA as template is amplified by a hot-start Taq DNA polymerase. During DNA amplification, the target-specific probes bound to the target site on DNA are cleaved by the 5′-3′ exonuclease of Taq DNA polymerase. Upon cleavage, the unquenched probes generate fluorescence for real-time quantification.
