GC TEMPase 2x Master Mix I or II are ready-to-use mixes based on either GC Buffer I or GC Buffer II. GC TEMPase master mixes are specifically developed for the amplification of GC-rich DNA sequences.

FEATURES

  • High success rate with amplification of GC-rich DNA
  • High sensitivity, specificity and product yield
  • Diminished formation of non-specific products
  • Reaction set-up at room temperature

DESCRIPTION

The GC TEMPase 2x master mixes consist of TEMPase Hot Start DNA Polymerase combined with either GC Buffer I or GC Buffer II, dNTPs and MgCl2. Just add DNA template and primers to successfully carry out PCR.

4x GC Buffer I and II are also available separately.

TIP – WHICH MASTER MIX TO CHOOSE FOR GC-RICH AMPLIFICATION

If your PCR fails with TEMPase Hot Start Polymerase 2x MASTER MIX A, we kindly recommend you to try GC TEMPase 2x Master Mix I.  If your amplification is still not satisfactory, then switch to GC TEMPase 2x Master Mix II.

 

OPTIMISATION OF GC-RICH DNA AMPLIFICATION

Six genes with varying percentage of GC contents were amplified with Standard Buffer (lanes S), Ammonium Buffer (lanes A), GC Buffer I (lanes I) and GC Buffer II (lanes II). M. Marker. With an increasing percentage of GC content in the expected amplicon, Standard Buffer and Ammonium Buffer fail to support the correct amplification products, while GC Buffer I and GC Buffer II succeed. Correct amplified products are encircled.

COVERAGE STUDY OF GC TEMPASE 2x MASTER MIX I

GC TEMPase I displays superior performance on a broad range of amplicons with a GC content ranging from 41 – 78 %. Five genes with increasing percentage of GC content were amplified using GC TEMPase Master Mix I. Lane M is Marker (Iqon DNA Mini Ladder). Number of PCR cycles used in this study is 40.
