The PCR Decontamination Kit can remove contaminating DNA in PCR master mixes, without reduction of PCR sensitivity.
Detail
OverView
The PCR Decontamination Kit can remove contaminating DNA in PCR master mixes, without reduction of PCR sensitivity.
The double-strand specific property of the dsDNase allows decontamination with primers and probe present.
Efficient for end-point PCR, probe-based qPCR, and some SYBR based qPCR mixes.
Contaminating bacterial DNA can be reduced to levels below the detection limit.
Fast and easy protocol.
Flat NTCs (No Template Controls).
Decontamination of master mixes without reduction of sensitivity has always been a challenge. Especially when minor amounts of DNA are targeted, contaminating DNA is a major problem. Any loss of sensitivity in the qPCR assay caused by the decontamination protocol is unacceptable.
In Figure 1, it is demonstrated that the PCR decontamination kit can remove contaminating DNA from a qPCR mix to non-detectable levels (flat NTC), without affecting the sensitivity of the qPCR.

A custom designed PACE® Genotyping Assay, designed to your target sequence. Compatible with all PACE genotyping master mixes.
About
PACE (PCR Allelic Competitive Extension) genotyping chemistry is a homogeneous, PCR-based allele-specific technology for the analysis of DNA sequence variants, most commonly SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) and Indels (insertion / deletions).
PACE genotyping chemistry is comprised of two parts:
PACE Genotyping Assay: two allele-specific forward primers and one common, reverse primer. The allele-specific forward primers each have different 3′ terminal bases reflecting the target variant, and a unique 5’ tail sequence which is incorporated as part of the fluorescent signal mechanism.
PACE Genotyping Master Mix: containing all remaining components required for PCR and the generation of fluorescent signals. PACE Genotyping Master Mix contains a novel, universal, fluorescent reporting cassette to produce machine-readable fluorescent signals (FAM and HEX) corresponding to the assay genotypes.
When combined with sample DNA, these components create a PACE Genotyping Reaction, as illustrated in the figure below.
We have extensive knowledge and experience in assay design, especially when it comes to allele-specific PCR. PACE Genotyping Assays are available to purchase either Validated and Unvalidated. Validated assays require customer DNA to validate and optimise, for guaranteed performance. Unvalidated assays are designed in silico and supplied untested.
REQUIRED COMPONENTS
qPCR machine or Thermocycler + Fluorescent plate reader
PCR plate or equivalent and appropriate optically clear seal
Template DNA
PCR-grade water
PACE Genotyping Master Mix or PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix
STEPS TO YOUR PACE GENOTYPING ASSAY DESIGN
Place your order on this page. Our support team will contact you by email.
Fill out an Assay Design Template form with all the information we need to process your custom PACE Genotyping Assay order. We will email you a copy of the template when we first contact you, or your can download a copy here.
Using the information you provide us, we will create your PACE Genotyping Assay designs, order the oligos, and send you design sequences.
Once we receive the oligos, we assemble the assay(s) and then ship an aliquot to you (unvalidated) or test on your DNA samples before shipping the aliquot to you (validated).

Bis-propargyl-PEG14 is a homobifunctional crosslinker that can participate in Click Chemistry to yield a stable triazole linkage with azide; copper is needed as a catalyst. With PEG chain embedded in the molecule, the hydrophilicity is greatly improved. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Rapid and simple procedure to generate digested peptides
Simultaneous digestion, purification and concentration at once
Peptide generation is complete, with no generation of additional artifacts being detected in mass spectrometry
Peptides are ready for applications such as mass spectrometry and SDS-PAGE
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s resin separation matrix
This kit is highly efficient in the enzymatic digestion of simple and complex protein samples using trypsin and the subsequent purification of the resulting peptides using a convenient spin column format. Trypsin is added to the protein sample and bound to the column. Salts are washed away and the trypsin is then activated to digest proteins. Peptides are then eluted in a small volume and ready for downstream analysis. The peptides generated are complete, with no additional artifacts being detected in mass spectrometry. Fifteen micrograms of protein can be processed, digested and purified with each spin column with about 20 minutes of hands-on time (plus trypsin incubation). The simultaneous protein digestion and volumetric concentration of the purified peptides makes the kit a convenient method for preparing peptides to be analyzed by many downstream applications such as mass spectrometry and more.
Storage Conditions All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. Once opened, the solution should be stored at 4°C. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment.
