PR1MA™ Taq

• Ideal for routine PCR applications as well as genotyping, colony PCR, and fast PCR
• Improved template affinity and solubility for higher enzyme activity and greater yields
• Proprietary buffer optimized for a variety of assay conditions
• Conveniently supplied as a 2X Master Mix or in a 2-tube format of polymerase and separate 5X buffer 

PR1MA™ Taq provides superior results for routine applications. Modified to improve DNA-binding, this polymerase offers higher solubility and greater template affinity, resulting in consistently superior performance. PR1MA™ Taq Polymerase exhibits a 5' to 3' nuclease activity, but no 3' to 5' (proofreading) activity and works well with a wide range of DNA templates including GC-rich sequences.

The polymerase is supplied with a 5X buffer containing MgCl2 and a proprietary mix of enhancers (dNTP's not included). For convenience, PR1MA Taq is also available in a ready-to-use 2X Master Mix - just add primers and template DNA. Our "Red Dye" Master Mix incorporates a red-loading dye that allows amplified samples to be loaded directly on an agarose gel.  The red color aids in visualization during pipetting, and higher density of the buffer ensures that the samples will drop into the gel wells.

Labcon ZAP™ Slik Aerosol Filter Pipette Tips - Hinged Lid

Each style of ZAP™ SLIK Tips is designed from the beginning to fit precisely the range of pipettors listed in the fit charts. We carefully inspect the fitting with the actual pipettors, not just with measuring gauges. This means you won’t have to worry about leaking Tips and you don’t have to use extra force to mount these Tips.
 

ZAP™ SLIK tips feature a pure 10 uM pore size patented filter without any dyes or additives. The pores on this filter are 100% smaller than those in other aerosol tip brands. A smaller pore guarantees that your pipettor barrel will be kept clean of DNA, radionucleotides, and other contaminants. And this filter works to block fluids without any contaminants in the filter so you never have to worry that your work will be spoiled if your sample contacts the filter.

Real World Lab Tested

Labcon® ZAP™ Slik Tips are developed using their own in-house laboratory and tested on real pipettors. they don't use "pin" gauges or other unrealistic testing methods.

Quality Certification

Certificates are on file by lot number for all test results and available from the certificates page.

Virgin Resin

Only 100% Medical Grade virgin polypropylene resins are used in ZAP™ Slik Tips. No recycled plastics or commodity-grade resins.

FDA Registered Manufacturing

Labcon® is the only major pipet tip supplier to be registered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

Sustainable Product Design

Like all Labcon® products, Eclipse tips are designed from the beginning with sustainability in mind. These products go far beyond simple recycling to offer real Earth Friendly® solutions.

PR1MA™ SmartGlow™ DNA Safe Stain

• Replaces hazardous Ethidium Bromide (EtBr)
• Better sensitivity than EtBr
• Detect as little as 0.1ng of DNA
• Two types available
• PS Pre Stain
• LD Loading Dye
• Excitation by UV light or blue light
• Compatible with Accuris SmartBlue™ Transilluminator
• Ships at ambient temperature (stored at 4°C)

PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS (Pre-Stain) can be used as a direct replacement for Ethidium Bromide in agarose and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The stain emits green fluorescence when bound to dsDNA or ssDNA and emits red fluorescence when bound to RNA. PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS exhibits excitation peaks at 290 nm and 490 nm, allowing it to be used with UV and blue light.

Protocol:

• Prepare 100 mL of agarose or polyacrylamide solution.
• Add 5 uL of PR1MA™ SmartStain™ to the gel solution before pouring gels.
• For enhanced results, add PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS to the running buffer at a ratio of 5 uL per 100 mL. Adding PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS to the running buffer will result in increased sensitivity and better detection of small quantities of nucleic acid.
• After electrophoresis is complete, view the gel using a UV or blue light illuminator

Pipet-Aid® XP

The industry standard for laboratory sample handling. With an easily accessible 9-volt (Ni-MH) rechargeable battery and the ability to accommodate most pipettes from 1 to 100 mL, you'll have the flexibility to work wherever while sampling whatever.

The XP's speed settings for pipet filler and dispenser modes provide precise control and accuracy. The fast speed mode delivers up to 50 mL in 5 seconds, while the slow speed mode is ideal for using small pipettes or when you need more precise delivery.  The double membrane filter prevents cross-contamination, and the EZ Grip nosepiece allows for quick and easy filter replacement should over-pipetting occur.

You can also opt for the gravity drain model, which substitutes a gravity drain function for the fast mode on the dispense button.

Upgrade your pipetting game today with the Pipet-Aid XP and experience why users worldwide make Drummond Scientific their sample handling partner.

Portable Pipet-Aid®

A must-have precision device for technicians and specialists worldwide. This reliable and durable tool ensures consistent and accurate results, making it an indispensable part of any laboratory. With cordless functionality and a flow rate of better than 25 mL in 5 seconds when using a 100 mL pipette, the Portable Pipet-Aid® is the go-to choice for professionals who demand the best.

Pipet-Aid® XP Gravity

Similar to our standard XP model but has two key differences. In addition to the burgundy-colored buttons, clip, and nosepiece, it features a gravity (G) setting that allows for the dispensing of contents without activating the motor. This method is commonly used with volumetric pipettes.
