List of Products..
Standard PCR: nTaq
 |
nTaq has greatly reduced activity of 5'→3' exonuclease activity. As a result, formation of erroneously amplified products caused by the 5'→3' exonuclease activity of wild type polymerase is effectively prevented |
HOT-Start PCR: nTaq-HOT
 |
nTaq -HOT is a hot start PCR polymerase which remains inactive at temperatures lower than 75°C as a result of the chemical modifications. Therefore, a heat activation step is required to activate |
High Fidelity PCR: nPfu-Forte
 |
nPfu-Forte displays higher fidelity than nTaq due to its 3'→5' proofreading exonuclease activity. thus, High-fidelity DNA polymerization is obtained with nPfu-Forte, allowing amplification of DNA up to 10 kb long. |
High Performance PCR: nTaq-Tenuto
 |
nTaq-Tenuto is nTaq supplemented with 3'→5’ proofreading activity and a PCR enhancing factor for improved efficiency and fidelity. nTaq-Tenuto can be used to amplify DNA longer than 10 kb, which is difficult with common Taq polymerases alone. Thus, this product is improved in both fidelity (> 2 fold) of PCR products and amplification efficiency of longer PCR products. |
Multiplex PCR: nTaq-multi HOT
 |
nTaq-multi HOT is a hot start PCR polymerase which remains inactive at temperatures lower than 75°C Therefore, a heat activation step is required to activate nTaq-multi HOT. nTaq-multi HOT produces up to 20 different amplified products with a single tube reaction. This product can be used in general multiplex PCR and genotyping experiment related to genetic diagnostics. |
Clean PCR: nTaq-Pure
 |
nTaq-Pure is a highly purified polymerase especially for PCR reactions where freedom from bacterial genomic DNA is essential. nTaq-Pure was purified by state of the art technology for minimizing the E. coli genomic DNA contamination. |
Prevent carryover contamination PCR
 |
Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (UDG) catalyses the release of free uracil from uracil-containing DNA. UDG efficiently hydrolyzes uracil from single-stranded or double-stranded DNA. Thus UDG plus PCR polymerase eliminate uracil-product amplicon carry-over. |
