The ExcelTaq™ 5X Fluorescent PCR Master Mix is a ready-to-use mixture for amplifying targeted DNA fragments. It is designed to serve as a master mix for virtually all PCR applications. This product is supplied as a 5X concentrated mixture containing all the essential ingredients for PCR with the exception of templates and primers. In addition, the mixture contains electrophoresis tracking dye (Bromophenol blue) and a safer fluorescent DNA staining dye, which enables the user to track the electrophoresis process in real time as well as eliminates the need for the staining process. The resultant PCR reaction mixture is sufficiently dense enough to be loaded directly into a TAE or TBE buffered gel for electrophoresis.

Q-PAGE™ TGN (Tris-Glycine Novel) Precast Gels are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels perform enhanced speed, better separation, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in Q-PAGE™ TGN series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses.
Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 12- and 15-well formats. Two available cassette sizes, Mini (10 x 8.3 cm) and Midi (10 x 10 cm), are compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems. Q-PAGE™ Mini (QP4XXX) Gels are suitable for Bio-Rad® and other systems. Q-PAGE™ Midi (QP5XXX) Gels are suitable for Invitrogen® XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell, Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank, Hoefer SE260, and other systems.
Key Features
User-friendly gel cassette:
Numbered and framed wells for sample loading
Labeled warning sign and green tape as reminder
Enhanced gel performance:
Enhanced gel electrophoresis speed
Better band separation, equivalent to commercially 4-20% TG gels
Stable for shipping at ambient temperature
Easy compatibility:
Available as homogeneous and adjusted gradient gels for a wide range of protein separation.
Compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems
Storage and stability
Store Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels at 4°C for periods up to 12 months.
Do not freeze Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels. Remove tape and comb before electrophoresis.
Keep Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels flat during storage.

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 (1 Vials, 100 Reactions) – Sufficient reagent for 100 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.
