Description
PerfeCTa FastMix II is an advanced 2X concentrated qPCR SuperMix reagent for both fast and conventional PCR cycling protocols or instruments. It is a versatile and robust solution that provides the ultimate sensitivity and high PCR efficiency using a variety of fluorogenic probe chemistries, including TaqMan hydrolysis probes. The kit is provided as a 2X concentrated ready-to-use reaction cocktail that contains all required reaction components, except primers, probe(s), and DNA template. Inert AccuVue plate loading dye helps to minimize pipette error and provides visual confirmation of thorough mixing.
A key component of the kit is an ultra pure, processive thermostable DNA polymerase that is free of detectable E. coli DNA. PerfeCTa FastMix II is ideal for demanding qPCR applications such as bacterial pathogen detection where residual host DNA in typical recombinant enzyme preparations can limit assay sensitivity and obscure detection of low copy samples.
