Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is a ready-to-use, robust PCR mix containing highly purified Taq DNA polymerase, reaction buffer, ultra-pure dNTPs, MgCl₂ and PCR enhancers. Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is optimized for the sensitive DNA amplification of a wide range of DNA templates including complex mammalian genomic DNA and is ideal for screening, colony PCR, high-throughput PCR and genotyping of problematic GC-rich and AT-rich sequences.
Storage Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is shipped on blue or dry ice and should be stored at –20 °C upon receipt. Excessive freeze/thawing should be avoided. When stored as specified, Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is stable for 12 months from date of receipt. The kit may also be stored at 4 °C for 1 month. Important Considerations Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix: The 2X Mastermix is comprised of Radiant™ Taq DNA Polymerase, 2 mM dNTPs, 6 mM MgCl₂, and PCR enhancers for maximum efficiency, sensitivity and success with difficult amplicons. We do not suggest the use of additional PCR enhancers. Template: For complex genomic DNA, we suggest the use of 5 to 500 ng per reaction; For cDNA or plasmid DNA, please use <100 ng per reaction. Primers: Primers should have a predicted melting temperature of around 60 °C, using default Primer 3 settings.
The final primer concentration in the reaction should be between 0.2 and 0.6 μM. Annealing: We recommend performing a temperature gradient to determine the optimal annealing temperature. Alternatively, we suggest a 55 °C annealing temperature. Increase in 2 °C increments if non-specific products are present. Extension: Optimal extension is achieved at 72 °C. The optimal extension time is dependent on amplicon length and complexity. 15 seconds per kilobase (Kb) is recommended for amplification from eukaryotic genomic DNA or cDNA. For shorter amplicons, a 1 second extension is sufficient. Quality Control Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is tested extensively for robust activity, processivity, efficiency, heat activation, sensitivity, absence of nuclease contamination and absence of nucleic acid contamination. Radiant™ 2X Taq Mastermix is manufactured under a comprehensive quality management system, following ISO 9001:2008 standards.
Caution: Limitations of use: This product is intended for research purposes only and is not intended for any animal or human therapeutic use.
