Features

  • All-in-one 2x master mix for great convenience
  • Timesaving reaction setup
  • Improved specificity
  • dUTP incorporation possible
  • Processes up to 3 kb
  • Leaves a 3'dA overhang

DESCRIPTION

Taq OptiMix CLEAR 2x Master Mix ensures the user an increased specificity and improved PCR performance, even on difficult templates. Taq OptiMix CLEAR 2x Master Mix offers reduced set-up time and eliminates the risk of contamination of reaction components. Taq OptiMix CLEAR 2x Master Mix is suitable for standard PCR applications, screening and high throughput testing.

Taq OptiMix CLEAR is a ready to use 2x reaction mix. Taq OptiMix CLEAR 2x Master Mix is composed of Ampliqon Taq DNA polymerase and an optimized buffer system including dNTPs and magnesium chloride.

COMPARISON BETWEEN TAQ OPTIMIX CLEAR 2X MASTER MIX AND THREE COMPETITORS

Taq OptiMix CLEAR was compared with corresponding Taq DNA Polymerase master mixes from three well recognized competitors; T,K and N. Six different primer targets (BAIP, Q8, CFTR, ENG5, ENG9 and PAH) were evaluated. Taq OptMix CLEAR performed equally well  or better on all six primer targets  tested in this set up. Each amplification was conducted according to supplier’s manual.

INCREASED SPECIFICITY

PCR performance of Taq OptiMix 2x Master Mix Clear was compared to PCR performance of Ampliqon Taq DNA Polymerase  2x Master Mix on six different DNA targets; varying in length BAIP (788), Q8 (727 bp), CFTR (613 bp), ENG5 (293 bp), ENG9 (293 bp), and PAH (203 bp). Increased specificity was obtained when using Taq OptiMix 2x Master Mix  compared to Taq DNA Polymerase 2x Master Mix.
