Kit for quantitative, real-time, multiplex PCR
Ideal for use in projects where large numbers of samples or targets are amplified, for example, in genetic screening or target validation
The master-mix solution contains pre-optimised concentrations of HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase and MgCl2, plus dNTPs and a unique new multiplex PCR buffer.
The stringent hot start provided by HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase increases specificity and allows reaction setup at room temperature without generating nonspecific PCR products and primer-dimers.
Q-Solution provided in the kit allows amplification of GC-rich targets or targets with complex secondary structure.
The Qiagen Multiplex PCR kit is highly suited for many types of multiplex PCR applications, including typing and analysis of transgenic organisms, amplification of multiple DNA regions for SNP analysis, amplification and analysis of microsatellites, and typing of and detection of bacteria and viruses.
The Qiagen Multiplex PCR kit provides a cost-effective and timesaving solution for multiplex PCR applications.
The kit includes a comprehensive handbook with detailed protocols, information on sensitive multiplex PCR applications, and guidelines for multiplex PCR primer design.
