SYBR® Green I Detection

Standard Cycling

PerfeCTa™ SYBR® Green SuperMixes are ready-to-use 2x reaction mixes that contain all components , except primers and template for real-time PCR using SYBR® Green. PerfeCTa™ SYBR® Green SuperMixes enable you to achieve exceptional reliability, sensitivity and specificity in qPCR. These SuperMixes provide sensitive detection of cDNA and genomic targets over a broad dynamic range with a strong fluorescent signal. PerfeCTa™ SYBR® Green SuperMixes are available and optimized for all real-time PCR instrument platforms including those requiring normalization with ROX reference dye. See our Selection Guide for SYBR Green I Detection or go directly to the corresponding qPCR product list.

PerfeCTa™ SYBR® Green SuperMix offers
  • Reduced nonspecific amplification - AccuStart™ Taq DNA polymerase provides a superior, antibody-mediated, hot-start
  • Minimal optimization - pre-mixed formats require only the addition of primers and template and are pre-optimized for most instruments
  • Decontamination option - available with UNG (uracil-N-glycosylase) for elimination of previously-amplified fragments

Performance Data


PerfeCTa™ SYBR® Green SuperMix Comparison to Power SYBR® Green PCR Master Mix (Applied BioSystems®), PKCA
Log-fold serial dilutions of qScript™ cDNA from HeLa cell total RNA (100 ng to 1 pg) were analyzed by SYBR Green qPCR following each manufacturers protocol. Averaged plots of triplicate qPCR reactions are shown. No amplification was observed from 1pg input with Power SYBR Green PCR Master Mix.

Effect of dUTP Substitution on SYBR® Green qPCR (PKCA)
104-bp fragment of protein kinase C, alpha (PKCA) was amplified from log-fold serial dilutions of qScript™-synthesized cDNA from HeLa cell total RNA (100 ng to 10 pg) in 25-uL volumes with PerfeCTa™ SYBR Green SuperMix (dTTP-containing master mix) or PerfeCTa™ SYBR Green SuperMix, UNG (dUTP-containing master mix). Averaged plots of quadruplicate qRT-PCR reactions are shown. Amplification was not observed in "no template control" reactions (NTCs). PCR efficiency and sensitivity were comparable for the two amplification reagents. Inset: Dissociation curve for dT-containing (blue) and dU-containing (orange) PKCA-specific PCR product. Substitution of dUTP for dTTP lowered PCR product Tm by 1.3oC.

More Performance Data


Fast-cycle SYBR® Green qPCR with equal performance to conventional SYBR Green protocols
RNA-specific adenosine deaminase (ADAR) was amplified from log-fold dilutions of total HeLa cell cDNA (100 ng to 10 pg) using PerfeCTa™ SYBR Green FastMix™, with fast cycling protocol, or PerfeCTa™ SYBR Green SuperMix, with conventional cycling conditions.
