Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a premium collection of Thermo Scientific Taq DNA polymerases that are licensed and optimised for use in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) processes. ThermoPrime Taq DNA Polymerase and Thermo-Start Taq DNA Polymerase are designed to provide excellent amplification specificity and improved product yield.
ThermoPrime Taq DNA Polymerase exhibits enhanced thermal stability at DNA denaturation temperatures, ensuring optimal enzyme activity throughout the thermal cycling process and maximum product yield. Suitable for the amplification of templates up to 4 kb in length, this high-performance enzyme is ideal for both standard and long PCR applications.
Dr Justin Pachebat of the Genome Mapping and Sequencing facility at the University of Cambridge said: “We perform high-throughput PCR typing for physical genome mapping, setting up 5000 reactions per run in 384-well plates. In a direct comparison with our previous PCR mix, using the same reaction conditions, we found the Thermo-Start PCR Master Mix to be highly suitable for high-throughput/robotic PCR applications.”
