Brevetoxins (PbTx) are a class of cyclic polyether compounds produced by certain algae such as Karenia brevis. K. brevis can produce Brevetoxins in large quantities during an algae bloom which then pose a major health threat and are important to monitor and mitigate. Brevetoxins are the causative agent of Neurotoxic Shellfish Poisoning (NSP).

PACE Multiplex Master Mix is an advanced and versatile extension of our PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix, formulated for the simultaneous detection of up to four targets in one reaction well. For example, two bi-allelic SNPs, or one reference gene and a further three genes of interest.
PACE Multiplex genotyping assay designs are available from 3CR Bioscience through our free PACE assay design service; once designed, users can purchase assay primers independently or through 3CR Bioscience using our partial or full-assay validation service.
Users will require a plate reader capable of reading FAM, HEX, ATTO 590, ATTO 647N and reference dye ATTO 680 (wavelengths in the PACE Multiplex Master Mix User Guide). PACE Multiplex Master Mix is supplied at 2x concentration for convenience and with or without ATTO 680 reference dye at a range of levels to ensure compatibility with your qPCR machine or reader.
IsoPol® BST+ is a heat-tolerant BST polymerase (large fragment) with enhanced strand-displacement activity. IsoPol® BST+ is active from 25 to 65°C. It is lacking 5’-3’- and 3’-5’-exonuclease activity.
Key features
IsoPol® BST+ lacks 5’-3’- and 3’-5’-exonuclease activity.
Inactivation – IsoPol® BST+ is completely inactivated after one minute incubation at 95°C
Enhanced strand displacement and processivity.
Increased salt tolerance.
IsoPol® BST+ Glycerol FREE
Is the popular choice f or isothermal applications such as LAMP and RT-LAMP at point-of-care diagnostics for its superior amplification performance and robustness. The enzyme is offered in a 1X storage buffer at a concentration < 300 U/µl
IsoPol® BST+ High Concentration Glycerol FREE
(IsoPol® BST+ HC Glycerol FREE) is used to ease the product development processes in sequencing technologies, solid phase amplification and several isothermal technologies. Same performance as IsoPol® BST+ (i.e., high processivity, relative SDA, and relative activity) with the only difference that it is offered in a 2X storage buffer at a concentration > 500 U/
Key features
High concentration
High purity
Lyophilisation and automation friendly
