BlasTaq 2X qPCR MasterMix

BlasTaq™ 2X qPCR MasterMix provides a convenient, reliable and robust setup for performing quantitative real-time analysis of DNA samples. This ready-to-use qPCR MasterMix contains abm’s strategically-engineered, next generation Taq Polymerase, BlasTaq™ DNA Polymerase, providing for rapid extension rates and robust performance. With specialized reaction conditions, this polymerase provides increased processivity, yields, and sensitivity, while shortening reaction times by up to 70%, compared to wild-type Taq DNA polymerase. ROX reference dye is provided separate from the MasterMix, making this kit universally compatible with most qPCR instruments.BlasTaq™ has 5’-3’ polymerase and 5’-3’ exonuclease activities, lacks 3’-5’ exonuclease activity, and produces 3’-dA-tailed amplicons. qPCR products made with BlasTaq™ can be used with TA cloning vectors.Key Features• Enable streamlined protocol in a simple reaction set-up. • Allow accurate quantification of a variety of gene targets. • Reduce pipetting steps to minimize the risk of contamination.• Compatible with most real-time PCR instruments.
