PCR supermix for probe-based detection
Formulation gives high performance with cDNA as well as genomic and plasmid DNA templates over a broad dynamic range, achieving sensitive and specific amplification
The iTaq Supermix with Rox is a new real-time PCR supermix designed for probe-based detection on all Rox-dependent optical thermal cyclers The formulation gives high performance with cDNA as well as genomic and plasmid DNA templates over a broad dynamic range, achieving sensitive and specific amplification over at least seven orders of magnitude, says Bio-Rad The supermix is pre-blended with hot-start iTaq DNA polymerase, optimised buffer, nucleotides including dUTP, and the passive reference dye Rox

New tests and automated platform promise to increase efficiency, produce faster results, expand mass screening capabilities, and reduce costs
Its convenient one-tube formulation enables users to obtain sensitive and specific amplification every time.
Features of this novel formulation of real-time PCR include the following:.
Contains the passive reference dye Rox for normalisation of fluorescent signals and well-to-well optical variations.
All reaction components are pre-blended for ease of use on all Rox-dependent platforms and easy set-up and storage.
Unique low foam formulation minimises bubble formation during pipetting, thereby improving accuracy.
Contains hot-start iTaq DNA polymerase for stringent PCR amplification.
Supermix incorporates dUTP for optional UNG pre-treatment of possible contaminants. Request a free brochure from Bio-Rad Laboratories ...
