RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is an engineered, extremely thermostable reverse transcriptase and combined DNA polymerase, obtained through directed, artificial evolution.
RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase can be used similarly to Tth DNA polymerase also for reverse transcription, but does not require the addition of Mn2+ for RT-PCR, which simplifies assay setup and possible sample processing.
– half-life at 95°C of >40 min.
Detail
RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is an engineered, extremely thermostable reverse transcriptase and combined DNA polymerase, obtained through directed, artificial evolution.
RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase can be used similarly to Tth DNA polymerase also for reverse transcription, but does not require the addition of Mn2+ for RT-PCR, which simplifies assay setup and possible sample processing.
– half-life at 95°C of >40 min.
– fast start function due to a hotstart aptamer formulation which prevents unspecific amplification at lower temperatures (<57°C)
– facilitates “zero-step” RT-PCRs directly from RNA templates (without an isothermal reverse transcription step), as reverse transcription takes place simultaneously with DNA amplification during the cycled PCR elongation step.
– allows reverse transcription reactions at high temperatures, thus minimizing the problems encountered with strong secondary structures in RNA that melt at elevated temperatures.
– RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is the pure, reverse transcription active enzyme ingredient of our Volcano3G® RT-PCR Master Mixes
Please note: Due to the thermostable nature of the enzyme, it is recommended to design very high melting primers and probes (>65°C). See more details in FAQ.

Overview
Rapid isolation of both small and large species of DNA from urine
Convenient spin column format
Effective removal of PCR inhibitors
Purified DNA is highly suited to sensitive downstream applications
Allows for the purification of viral DNA from urine
Both high molecular weight DNA (greater than 1 kb in size; mostly cell associated) and the smaller DNA (150 – 250 bp; derived from the circulation) is effectively isolated and purified using a rapid and convenient spin column protocol. This kit can be used to isolate DNA from a broad range of viruses in urine as well. Salts, metabolic wastes, proteins and other contaminants are removed to yield inhibitor-free DNA for use in sensitive applications. The DNA is of excellent quality for various downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR and DNA fingerprinting, methylation studies and more.
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 50 μL to 1.75 mL of urine. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes.
Urine DNA Isolation Kit (Slurry Format)
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 3 mL to 25 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.
Urine DNA Isolation Maxi Kit (Slurry Format)
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 25 mL of urine up to 80 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.
Background
DNA found in urine can be divided into 2 basic categories. The larger species, genomic-DNA (gDNA), is generally greater than 1 kb in size, and appears to be derived mainly from exfoliated cells. The second species is smaller, generally between 150 and 250 bp (apoptotic-DNA), and derives, at least in part, from the circulation. The second species is also considered as an RNA/DNA hybrid as reported by Halicka et al. (2000). Both types of DNA can be isolated reliably using this kit.

Product Info
Overview
Columns bind proteins of interest while endotoxins flow through
Reduce endotoxin levels to less than 0.01 EU/µg of protein
Proteins are desalted
Greater than 95% protein recovery
Concentrate protein samples and remove detergents at the same time
Effectively remove a wide range of detergents including SDS, Triton® X-100, CHAPS, NP-40, and Tween 20
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s resin separation matrix
The ProteoSpin™ Total Protein Concentration, Detergent Clean-Up and Endotoxin Removal Kits are designed for the rapid removal of endotoxins from previously purified proteins or peptides, with protein recoveries of > 95% being achieved. Endotoxins, also known as lipopolysaccharides, are cell-membrane components of Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli. Endotoxins liberated by Gram-negative bacteria are frequent contaminations of protein solutions derived from bioprocesses. Due to the high toxicity of endotoxins in vivo and in vitro, their removal from protein preparations is often necessary prior to the use of the protein in downstream applications. These kits efficiently reduce endotoxin levels to ≤ 0.01 EU/mg of protein, using spin column chromatography based on Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. These kits are highly efficient in removing many different salts commonly used in the laboratory including, but not limited to, MgCl2, NaCl, KCl, CaCl2, LiCl and CsCl. The purified protein samples can be used in a number of downstream applications including sequencing, cloning, and in vitro and in vivo introduction into cells and organisms for various purposes. The simultaneous removal of salts while concentrating a dilute protein solution makes the kit a convenient method for preparing proteins before running many downstream applications such as SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing, X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and other applications.
