Universe Taq 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.

Universe Taq Mix is a ready-to-use 2X mixture of Universe Taq 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.

Universe Taq Mix is recommended for all standard PCR applications. The mix is comprised of Universe Taq DNA polymerase and an innovative buffer system that deliver very high yield PCR amplification over a wide range of PCR templates, enables universal annealing temperature by isostabilizing primer-template duplex structures. The engineered Taq enzyme confers fast cycling, resistance to common inhibitors and host-start which enable superior specificity and sensitivity. It can work in both purified DNA and crude samples.
