PEG3-bis(Amino-Tri-(Propargyl-PEG8-ethoxymethyl)-methane)

Description

The ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase is a mixture of an aptamer-based inhibitor and a recombinant thermo-stable Taq DNA polymerase designed for preventing or minimizing non-specific DNA amplification in PCR reaction. The inactivation of polymerase is achieved by a reversible binding of the aptamer to the polymerase at temperatures below 45°C. The aptamer inhibitor releases polymerase during normal PCR cycling. The aptamer-based inhibition omits the time-consuming initial activation step required by chemically modified or antibody-based hot start polymerases.

The high specificity and sensitivity of ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows sensitive detection from limited amount of DNA templates, such as 1 pg of cDNA or 1 fg of plasmid DNA. With a high DNA synthesis rate and high thermo-stability, the ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows reactions to be set up at room temperature and is suitable for common and specialized PCR applications

Features

• Aptamer-based hot start PCR
• Reversible enzyme inactivation
• Omits extra enzyme activation step
• Convenient for room temperature PCR set-up
• High yield and specificity of target amplicons
• Wide range of amplicon length (up to 10 kb)
• High sensitivity (as low as 1 fg of plasmid)

Applications 

• High specificity PCR
• Generation of PCR products for TA cloning
• Routine PCR, multiplex PCR, colony PCR, and RT-PCR

Storage

-20°C for 24 months

Overview

• Sequentially purify total RNA (and miRNA), DNA and proteins from a single sample
• No sample splitting or need to use phenol or precipitation methods
• Purify RNA/DNA/Protein from cultured animal cells, tissues, blood, bacteria, yeast, fungi or plants
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

RNA/DNA/Protein Purification Plus Kit

This kit provides a rapid method for the high throughput isolation and purification of total RNA, DNA and proteins sequentially from a single sample of cultured animal cells, small tissue samples, blood, bacteria, or yeast. The kit employs two columns: 1) for gDNA purification and 2) for RNA purification utilizing Norgen’s resin columns (superior for the binding of all RNA sizes including miRNA). The proteins are also purified on the second column after RNA elution. The proteins are eluted in buffer and are ready for downstream application without any further clean up required. The proteins can be quantified directly, used in western blots, ELISA or mass spectrometry. This kit provides a rapid spin-column method for the isolation and purification of total RNA, genomic DNA and proteins sequentially from a single sample of cultured animal cells, small tissue samples, blood, bacteria, yeast, fungi or plants.

RNA/DNA/Protein Purification Plus Micro Kit

This kit provides a rapid spin-column method for the isolation and purification of total RNA, DNA and proteins sequentially from a single sample of cultured animal cells, small tissue samples, microdissected samples including LCM, stem cells, sorted cells, and CTC. The total RNA, genomic DNA and proteins are all column purified in less than 30 minutes. The RNA and DNA can be eluted in as little as 20 µL while the protein can be eluted in as little as 50 µL. This kit provides the same performance as if the samples were isolated from dedicated kits.

RNA/DNA/Protein Purification 96-Well Plus Kit

The kit employs two plates: 1) for DNA purification and 2) for RNA purification utilizing Norgen’s resin (superior for the binding of all RNA sizes including miRNA). Please see the protocol schematic below.
