XTL-65 Series Zoom Stereo Microscope

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

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

DBCO-PEG2-acid is an analog of DBCO-Acid with PEG linker and a DBCO group. The DBCO groups is commonly used for copper-free Click Chemistry reactions due to its strain promoted high energy. The hydrophilic PEG chain allows for increased water solubility. The terminal carboxylic acid can react with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

OverView

AZtaq™ DNA Polymerase is a high-quality DNA polymerase, originating form Thermus aquaticus. Being highly thermostable, AZtaq is ideal for use in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) applications.

The enzyme catalyses the synthesis of a complementary DNA strand using a primed DNA or cDNA strand as template. It possesses 5’-3’ exonuclease activity while lacking 3’-5’ proofreading activity.

AZtaq is compatible with the use of dUTP, enabling highly efficient removal of carry-over contamination with Cod UNG.

Key Features 

• Excellent qPCR Performance
• Compatible with dUTP
• Thermostable

Applications

• PCR/qPCR
