Hot Start DNA polymerase
Tuesday, 27 January, 2009
Bioron SuperHoTTaq (Hot Start) DNA Polymerase is the optimised mixture of Taq DNA polymerase and Anti-Taq DNA polymerase monoclonal antibodies. The antibodies block polymerase activity during set-up of the PCR reactions at ambient temperature (20-22°C). The inhibition of Taq DNA polymerase is completely reversed when the temperature is above 70°C. The PCR products obtained with SuperHoT Taq are free from nonspecific products and from primer-dimers. Applications for SuperHoTTaq (Hot Start) DNA Polymerase include: complex genomic or cDNA templates; low copy numbers targets; PCR requiring large number of thermal cycles; and multiplex PCR.
