Platinum® PCR SuperMix
Platinum® PCR SuperMix is a ready-to-use mixture of DNA polymerase, salts, magnesium, and dNTPs for efficient PCR amplification. All you have to do is add template and primers, reducing set-up time by half (see figure). Platinum® PCR SuperMix:
• Allows for room temperature reaction assembly
• Amplifies fragments up to 5 kb
• Produces products with 3'-A ends
• Improves PCR specificity
Using Platinum® PCR SuperMix
Platinum® PCR SuperMix is for high-specificity DNA amplification. High specificity is provided by a mixture of recombinant Taq DNA Polymerase and Platinum® monoclonal antibodies to Taq DNA Polymerase. Automatic "hot-start" improves the specificity of PCR. Taq DNA Polymerase is activated during the initial denaturation step.
