OmniTaq 3 PCR Master Mix

Inhibition-resistant Taq Pols & Master Mixes

- Inhibition-Resistant Taq DNA Polymerases are obtained by molecular engineering through mutagenesis of DNA polymerase gene to render enzymes resistant to PCR inhibitors such as blood, plasma, serum, soil, plant, water, chocolate, cheese and milk.
- Proven applications include forensics, environmental testing, agriculture and clinical diagnostics.
- Up to 40% whole blood, plasma or serum are tolerated and varying amounts of soil, plant and inhibitory foods.
- Provides superior amplification, even on damaged or degraded DNA templates.
- DNA extraction is often unnecessary, saving time and enabling amplification from minute quantities of DNA.
- Can tolerate more PCR inhibitors when combining with PCR enhancers.

OmniTaq 3 or OmniTaq 3 LA Mix is a ready-to-use 2X mixture of OmniTaq 3 or OmniTaq 3 LA DNA polymerase, salts, magnesium and dNTPs for setting up a trouble-free PCR reaction. All you have to do is to add template, specific primers and water, thereby save time, effort and minimize pipetting error.

2X OmniTaq 3 or OmniTaq 3 LA Mix is recommended for all standard PCR applications. The mix is comprised of OmniTaq 3 or OmniTaq 3 LA DNA polymerase (for amplification of a longer fragment) and a novel buffer system that deliver very high yield PCR amplification over a wide range of PCR templates. It has been developed to give more robust amplification than other commonly-used mixes, allowing it to perform well with challenging templates and for direct PCR without DNA purification.
