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).
The FastRunner DNA Ladder is prepared to ensure quality and batch-to-batch consistency. This Ladder contains eight discrete fragments ranging from 50 bp to 2000 bp with a higher intensity reference band at 500 bp. This Ladder is ideal for quick sizing of PCR products and restriction digests.
Contents 1mL of premixed DNA ladder (0.5µg/10µL) in loading buffer (10mM EDTA, 10% glycerol, 0.015% bromophenol blue, and 0.17% SDS).
Ladder Properties: • Eight discrete bands, ranging from 50 bp to 2000 bp • Higher intensity band at 500 bp for easy reference

Recommended Use: Mix thoroughly. For best results, load 10µL of DNA ladder per well. For precise mass determination with a densitometer, stain gel after electrophoresis using 0.5µg/mL ethidium bromide for 30-40 minutes. The table above shows the size and mass for each band based on 10µL ladder per well.
Storage: Stable at room temperature. For longer term storage, -20°C is recommended.
This ladder was standardized using 10µL of DNA per lane on a 0.8 cm thick, 13 x 15 cm, 1.0% agarose gel run in TAE buffer.
This fast screening test kit contains 10 tests with everything needed for accurate results of unsafe lead levels in the field.
This is a revolutionary product designed to make Lead testing in water safe, easy, and affordable. This fast screening test kit contains 10 tests with everything needed for accurate results of unsafe lead levels. With reliable results in only 10 minutes, this test kit clearly gives results confirming Lead in water and conforming to the EPA guideline of 15 ppb (µg/L). The kit can test water quality from various sources including faucets, wells (ground water), and home purification systems.
High Blood lead levels (i.e., greater than 700ppb) can cause serious health effects, including seizure, coma, and death. Blood levels as low as 100ppb have been associated with adverse effects on cognitive development, growth, and behavior among children aged 1-5 years.
Sample method:
1. Take a first-draw sample
Immediately after opening a faucet or valve, collect a 250 mL sample. This sample should be from each tap used for consumption.
2. Take a flush sample
If first-draw sample results show elevated lead levels of 5 ppb or higher, collect a flush sample. To do this, ensure water has not been used for between 8 to 18 hours, then collect the sample at 30 seconds.
3. Take sequential samples
If you want to test a lead service line, collect 8 to 10 sequential samples, depending on how far the line is from the tap.
