General Description
Bullseye HS Taq Polymerase, 2X Mix is a ready-to-use 2.0X master mix. Simply add primers, template, and water to successfully carry out primer extensions and other molecular biology applications.
Bullseye HS Taq Polymerase Mix, the NH4+ buffer system, dNTPs and magnesium chloride are present in HS Taq Pol Mix with HS Buffer I. Each reaction requires 25 µL of the 2.0X reaction mix. Simply add primers, template and water to a total reaction volume of 50 µL.
Bullseye" HS Taq Polymerase Mix is a modified form of Bullseye Taq DNA Polymerase, which is activated by heat treatment. A chemical moiety is attached to the enzyme at the active site, which renders the enzyme inactive at room temperature. Thus, during setup and the first ramp of thermal cycling, the enzyme is not active and misprimed primers are not extended. The result is higher specificity and greater yields when compared to standard DNA polymerases.
Bullseye" HS Taq Polymerase Mix offers several advantages. Set up time is significantly reduced. The chance of contaminating component stocks is eliminated. Reduction of reagent handling steps leads to better reproducibility. Standard tests can be set up with the confidence that results will be consistent every time.
Composition of HS Taq Pol, 2x Mix
Tris-HCl pH 8.5, (NH4)2S04, 3.0mM MgCl2, 0.2% Tween 20Ã, 0.4 mM dNTPs, 0.2 units/µL HS Hot Start DNA Polymerase

2. Mix gently by pipetting the solution up and down a few times.
3. Program the thermal cycler according to the manufacturer's instructions.
4. Each program must start with an initial heat activation step at 95°C for 15 minutes.
For maximum yield and specificity, temperatures and cycling times should be optimized for each new template target or primer pair.
A typical thermal cycling program is shown below:
95°C for 15 min. Activate HS Hot Start Polymerase
30-40 cycles:
95°C 30 sec Denature template
45-65°C 30 sec Anneal primer

- 10 Mats/Bag, 5 Bags/Case
Works as a plate seal (to eliminate cross contamination) and compression mat all-in-one!
Our compression molded 96-round plug, silicone sealing mats for PCR plates minimize sample evaporation in a wide range of temperatures. These mats are chemically resistant and reusable; containing no adhesives or extractables to contaminate samples. Made of research-grade silicone, they can be autoclaved, and following a 10% bleach wash and ethanol rinse protocol may be reused.
Wells are scored (cut 80% of the way through, but not all of the way) to allow for sample access via pipettor, syringe, or probe. These scored perforations will seal themselves, after penetration, ensuring an airtight closure to the well.These Rotocycler strips are perfectly designed to perform on Rotor-Gene instruments. Tube strips are packaged separately from cap strips. The frosted extensions on caps not only make them more efficient and secure during handling but also offer a convenient area for labeling. For individual use, tube and cap strips can easily be separated and used as individual units.

The I-Blue MINI Plasmid Kit was designed for rapid isolation of plasmid DNA from 1-7 mL of cultured bacterial cells. I-Blue Lysis Buffer (an optional color indicator) is included with the kit in order to prevent common handling errors, ensuring efficient cell lysis and neutralization. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal genomic DNA and RNA contaminants. Typical yields are 20-35 µg for high-copy number plasmid or 3-10 µg for low-copy number plasmid from 4 mL of cultured bacterial cells. DNA phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation is not required and the entire procedure can be completed within 15 minutes. The purified plasmid DNA is ready for use in restriction enzyme digestion, ligation, PCR, and sequencing reactions.
Advantages
- Sample: 1-7 mL of cultured bacterial cells
- Yield: Up to 50 µg of pure plasmid DNA
- Format: Plasmid spin column
- Operation Time: Within 15 minutes
- Elution Volume: 30-100 µL
- Kit Storage: Dry at room temperature (15-25°C) for up to 1 year; PD1 and RNase A mixture should be stored at 2-8°C for up to 6 months
Quality Control
The quality of the I-Blue MINI Plasmid Kit is tested on a lot-to-lot basis by isolating plasmid DNA from a 4 mL overnight E. coli (DH5α) culture containing plasmid pBluescript (A600 > 2 U/mL). Following the purification process, a yield of more than 20 µg is obtained and the A260/A280 ratio is between 1.8-2.0. The purified plasmid DNA (1 µg) is used in EcoRI digestion, and analyzed by electrophoresis.
