DBCO-C5-NHS ester is an amine-reactive compound, which can be used to modify an amine-containing molecule in organic media. This reagent isn’t soluble in aqueous media. The extended 5-carbon atom spacer arm improves solubility in commonly used organic solvents including dichloromethane, chloroform, THF, and ethyl acetate, and it also improves derivatization efficiency and stability of conjugates. DBCO is commonly used for copper-free Click Chemistry reactions. Reagent grade, for research use only.

Novel method
PullG6 assay for the measurement of pullulanase employs a water soluble defined substrate, namely 4,6-O-benzylidene-4-nitrophenyl-63-α-D-maltotriosyl-maltotriose (BPNPG3G3), coupled with the ancillary enzymes α-glucosidase and β-glucosidase. Upon hydrolysis of the substrate at the 1,6-α-linkage by pullulanase or limit-dextrinase, the released 4-nitrophenyl-β-maltotrioside is immediately hydrolysed to glucose and 4-nitrophenol by the concerted action of the α-glucosidase and β-glucosidase enzymes in the reagent mixture. The reaction is terminated and phenolate ions are developed by addition of dilute alkali. The absorbance is read at 400 nm and the value obtained correlates directly with pullulanase activity.
Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is a ready-to-use solution that contains components required for RT-PCR amplification of RNA templates. The mix includes M-MuLV reverse transcriptase, Taq DNA polymerase, dNTPs, reaction buffer, MgCl2, KCl, and a PCR enhancer/stabilizer. The user needs only to add the template, the primer set and water to the Master Mix to set up the RT-PCR reaction. This convenient 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix reduces the time required to set up PCR reactions and reduces the possibility of contamination, particularly when preparing large numbers of reactions. The optimized master mix allows for robust amplification of RNA templates with high yields of PCR products.
Taq DNA Polymerase is a highly thermostable DNA polymerase that possesses a 5´→ 3´ polymerase activity and a very low 5´→ 3´ exonuclease activity. The source of Taq included with Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is an E. coli strain with a cloned Taq DNA Polymerase gene from Thermus aquaticus YT-1. M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase is an RNA-directed DNA polymerase that can synthesize a complementary DNA strand initiating from a primer using either RNA (cDNA synthesis) or single-stranded DNA as a template. The source of the Reverse Transcriptase included with Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is an E. coli strain with a cloned reverse transcriptase gene from M-MuLV.
Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is available in 3 convenient sizes:
Cat # 28113 – 100 reactions (sufficient for 100 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume) Cat # 28114 – 200 reactions (sufficient for 200 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume) Cat # 28115 – 500 reactions (sufficient for 500 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume)
2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix (2 Vials, 100 Reactions each) – Sufficient reagent for 200 x 20 µL reactions
Storage Conditions and Product Stability 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix should be stored at -20°C. For everyday use an aliquot can be stored at 4°C for up to 3 months. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles are not recommended. When stored at the proper temperature this reagent is stable for at least 1 year.
