PCR Master
ROCHE/11636103001 - (50 μl final reaction volume each containing 2.5 U Taq DNA-Polymerase), sufficient for 200 reactions, kit of 1 (2 components), suitable for PCR
Synonym: PCR
Product Type: Chemical
Roche Taq DNA Polymerase has high lot-to-lot consistency. Five different lots of Taq DNA Polymerase (lanes 1-5) were tested using a 0.5 kb fragment of λDNA. PCR products were visualized by gel electrophoresis. Result: Consistent amplifications were obtained.

| Application: | The PCR Master can be used instead of the single reagent Taq DNA Polmerase, or instead of the PCR Core Kit for nearly all simple, routine polymerase chain reaction applications. The only limitation is that the sample volume must not exceed half the total reaction volume. The PCR master mix is used for: • Routine PCR • RT-PCR • Other primer-extension reactions, such as sequencing and labeling |
| Features and Benefits: | • Reliable reproducible results: High lot-to-lot consistency. • Convenience: Adding template and primer requires only two pipetting steps. • Prevent PCR carryover: dUTP incorporation combination with Uracil-DNA Glycosylase prevents PCR cross-contamination. • Ready for immediate use: Master mix can be stored at +2 to +8°C. |
| General description: | Routine assays have medium size amplicons and 50% GC content. Taq DNA Polymerase has no proofreading or hot start features. It is optimally active at +75°C and pH 9. The 5′ → 3′ DNA polymerase lacks 3′ → 5′ exonuclease activity. The thermostable enzyme is a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of approximately 95 kD. Lack of restriction endonuclease: The enzyme originally isolated from T. aquaticus BM lacks Taq I restriction endonuclease activity. |
| General description: | The PCR Master contains all the reagents required to perform a standard PCR. All that must be added is the template DNA, the primers, and the required amount of water. The PCR Master contains a fixed MgCl2 concentration of 1.5 mM. However, higher concentrations may be achieved by adding additional MgCl2. PCR products generated by PCR Master are 3′-A single-overhang products. Therefore T/A cloning can be applied. The PCR Master is stable at +2 to +8 °C, allowing immediate PCR without the time-consuming thawing of reagents. |
