Description
ExcelTaq™ Klen-Taq DNA Polymerase is a specially blended enzyme mix containing KlenTaq-1 DNA polymerase (a 5’-exo-minus, N-terminal deletion of Taq DNA polymerase) and a small amount of a proofreading DNA polymerase. This unique blending helps to improve the fidelity, yield and processivity of the resultant PCR process. The Klen-Taq is also highly robust, showing high tolerance of varying concentrations of Mg2+; it is highly thermostable and has four times the fidelity compared to Taq DNA polymerase. The ExcelTaq™ Klen-Taq DNA Polymerase is ideal for DNA amplifications 0.5-5 kb in length on genomic DNA, and up to 10 kb on less complex templates.

- 4× fidelity as compared to Taq DNA polymerase
- Thermo-stable: up to 98°C during PCR denaturing step
- Robust PCR performance, resistance to variance in PCR conditions
Storage
-20°C for 24 months
