AccuStart II PCR SuperMix
AccuStart II PCR SuperMix is a 2X concentrated, ready-to-use reaction cocktail for routine PCR amplification of DNA fragments up to 4 kb. It contains all components, except primers and template. AccuStart II PCR SuperMix simplifies reaction assembly, improves assay reproducibility, and reduces the risk of contamination. A key component is AccuStart™ II Taq DNA polymerase which contains monoclonal antibodies that bind to the polymerase and keep it inactive prior to the initial PCR denaturation step. Upon heat activation (1 minute at 94°C), the antibodies denature irreversibly, releasing fully active, unmodified Taq DNA polymerase. This enables specific and efficient primer extension with the convenience of room temperature reaction assembly.
Features & Benefits
- High yield, high sensitivity
- Precise amplification – hot-start technology ensures specific and efficient primer extension

- AccuStart II Taq DNA Polymerase and stabilizers.
Storage conditions
AccuStart II PCR SuperMix is stable for 1 year when stored in a constant temperature freezer at -20?C. For convenience, it may be stored unfrozen at +2 to +8ºC for up to 12 months. Repeated freezing and thawing does not impair product performance.
