PR1MA™ qMAX™ cDNA Synthesis Kits

PR1MA™ now offers two cDNA Synthesis Kits, to meet a range of requirements.
 
The original cDNA Synthesis Kit is a 2-tube format for easy reaction setup and is ideal for 4 pg to 0.5 µg of input RNA. One tube includes our exceptionally stable Reverse Transcriptase combined with a potent RNAse inhibitor, and the other tube contains a 5X reaction buffer with an optimal mixture of anchored oligo (dT) primers and random hexamers to produce a non-biased population of cDNA. 
 
The 1st Strand cDNA Synthesis Flex Kit includes four components: a high-capacity Reverse Transcriptase, an optimized 5X buffer, separate solutions of oligo (dT) primers, and random hexamer primers. This multi-component format is ideal for 10 pg to 2.0 µg of input RNA and allows for greater flexibility in assay design.

PR1MA™ dNTPs

• Supplied as a ready-to-use 40 mM mix or a set of 4 separate 100 mM solutions
• Free of impurities and inhibitors that reduce sensitivity and yield
• No nuclease, protease or nickase activity
• >99% pure, purified by HPLC
• 24-month shelf life

PR1MA™ dNTP's are purified by HPLC in a strict process that results in greater than 99% purity. The stringent purification process eliminates PCR inhibitors such as tetraphosphates and pyrophosphates that can interfere with the sensitivity of your PCR and reduce yields.
The 40 mM dNTP Mix is a single tube that contains premixed dNTPs at a concentration of 10 mM each. The 100 mM dNTP Set contains four individual tubes, one each of dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP. The nucleotides are supplied in ultra-pure water as an ammonium salt. Both the set and mix are stable for 24 months when stored at -20ºC.

Extensive quality control testing is performed to ensure the dNTPs are free of nuclease, protease and nickase activity. Each lot is performance tested in standard PCR, long PCR and qPCR reactions to assess reproducibility and sensitivity.

 PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq

• Exceptional sensitivity for low-copy PCR
• Ideal for multiplex PCR and amplification of GC-rich DNA
• Same enhanced features as PR1MA Taq Polymerase
• Buffer optimized for fast cycling and reproducibility 

Engineered for controlled polymerase activity, PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq is bound with a monoclonal antibody that blocks enzyme activity. This allows reactions to be set up at room temperature without the risk of non-specific amplification.

When samples are ready, the reaction mixture is heated to 95°C to denature the antibody and initiate the reaction. Similar to the standard PR1MA™ Taq, Hot Start Taq is provided with a 5X buffer, or in a ready-to-use 2X Master Mix. The Master Mix can be ordered with or without an incorporated red gel loading dye. The 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.
