Ready-to-use, 2x concentrated Master Mix contains TaqNovaHS polymerase which is a mixture of recombinant Taq polymerase over expressed in E. coli and a highly specific monoclonal anti-Taq antibody.

The TaqNovaHS polymerase enables easy set-up of a hot-start PCR reaction at room temperature. The antibody binds reversibly to the enzyme, inhibiting polymerase activity at ambient temperatures, what prevents extension of non- specifically annealed primers and primer-dimers formed at low temperatures during PCR set-up. The antibody is released from the polymerase during initial DNA denaturation step, thus providing full DNA polymerase activity during standard cycling conditions.
Precisely optimized buffer components, reliable DNA polymerase and the appropriate selection of PCR enhancers provide a high performance, sensitivity and specificity over a broad dynamic range and give consistent recults across all commonly-used Real-Time PCR platforms.
