PCR/qPCR

MIDSCI can supply almost every needed product for PCR/qPCR: tubes, plates, strips, caps, taq, Mastermixes, dNPTs, dye and probe for qPCR, sealing film and much more.  If you are looking for any of these things, we can match almost all needs to all cyclers.  If you don’t find it easily contact us at tech@midsci.com and we will find it for you. 

96 or 384 we have it.  Non-Skirted, semi-skirted or full skirted, we have it.  0.1, 0.2, or 0.5 mL we have it.  A1, A12, H12, A24, P24 cuts, we have them.  Sybr© Green or probe alternative, we have it.  

Pro Tip: Colored plastics do not have any impact on DNA amplification.  But when setting up qPCR it is often recommended to use white plastics.  This will limit or prevent fluorescence refraction.  Light refraction can minimize sensitivity and consistency. 

Pro Tip 2: If you are seeing inconsistencies in PCR/qPCR try PR1MA Pipette Tips.  This will help optimize and reduce variance in the reactions.  Simple test, see the residual liquid left in tips?  This means some of the taq, dNTPs, sample, etc is left in the tip.  PR1MA tips help reduce that significantly and improve your consistency. 

Pro Tip 3: Seeing evaporation in the outer wells of a PCR/qPCR plate?  Sometimes it’s the plate, sometimes it the seal, and sometimes it’s the cycler.  Call us we have solutions.

Ultra Clear and Ultra Clean

PurePlus® Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) consumables are made without additives so you don't need to wonder what is different about the plates, tubes, or strips you are using this week. We also test every batch for contamination by Human DNA as well as the more common tests that other suppliers offer for RNase and DNase enzymes. Many of our plates are printed with black alpha numeric reference grids to make it easier for you to keep track of your samples. We also offer optically clear caps and opaque black or white plates for Real Time PCR. And we also offer re-usable silicone sealing mats and polypropylene sealing film. Labcon PurePlus® PCR tubes, strips and plates are designed to fit many popular thermocyclers including brands like Applied Biosystems, Eppendorf, Thermo Scientific, and Bio Rad. All our PCR disposables are made from 100% virgin polypropylene and are lot tested and certified to be free of RNase, DNase, and Human DNA. Autoclavable. Our pure resin consumables are available in strips, individual tubes, plates in clear natural or colors.

PurePlus® sterile disposables, like all our other sterile products, receive valid sterilization processing compliant with ISO 11137. So unlike "pre-sterile" products from other suppliers you can use PurePlus® PCR disposables for diagnostic and regulated procedures.

Need a great DNA Safe Stain at a great price?
Try PR1MA! Click 
here to order.


Bullseye DNA SafeStain,10,000x 

  • Safest DNA stain by far
  • Replaces EthBr in agarose gel electrophoresis
  • Detection of DNA and RNA
  • Excitation at 290 nm & 490 nm
  • Emission at 530 nm

DNA SafeStain is a new and safe nucleic acid stain for visualization of double-stranded DNA, single-stranded DNA, and RNA in agarose gels. The dyes are developed to replace toxic ethidium bromide (EthBr, a potent mutagen), commonly used in gel electrophoresis for visualization of nucleic acids in agarose gels. DNA SafeStain is non-carcinogenic by the Ames-test. The results are negative in both the mouse marrow chromophilous erthrocyte micronucleus and mouse spermary spermatocyte chromosomal aberration tests.

DNA SafeStain emits green fluorescence when bound to DNA. It has two excitation wavelength peaks when bound to nucleic acid, at 290nm and 490nm and the emission can be detected at 530nm.

Storage:
Store under dark at 4°C or room temperature.

User Instruction: 
DNA SafeStain can be used in the exact same way as EtBr in agarose gel electrophoresis. For example, add 100µl to 1 liter of 1X running buffer (1xTAE or 1x TBE), and use this DNA SafeStain containing buffer to make the agarose gel and run the gel.

 

Special Notes: 
1. For best results, dilute the DNA SafeStain 1:10,000 in your gel running buffer and use this dye-containing running buffer to make your agarose gel and to run the gel.

2. As is the case with EtBr; add more DNA SafeStain, if brighter DNA bands are desired. To view the results, any conventional DNA gel viewing light box or gel documentation system should work well with the DNA SafeStain; although, using a LED light instead of a UV light source is preferred due to the harmful nature of UV light.

This Product is For Research Use Only


*For the proper disposal of this product, follow University or Company Guidelines.

Bullseye DNA Safe Stain Plus

  • Higher sensitivity
  • Use in the same way as EtBr in agarose gel electrophoresis
  • Detection of DNA and RNA
  • Safest DNA stain by far
  • Low cost
  • 10,000X
  • Excitation wavelengths at 290nm and 490nm

DNA SafeStain Plus is a highly sensitive green fluorescent DNA/RNA staining reagent for detecting nucleic acids in agarose and polyacrylamide gels. This unique stain gives high sensitivity for detection of double-stranded or single-stranded DNA and RNA. Gels can be post-stained or the stain can be added to gels during gel casting or to the gel running buffer. DNA SafeStain Plus has two excitation wavelength peaks at about 290nm and 490nm, and an emission wavelength at 530nm, making it compatible with a standard UV light box, a blue-light transilluminator, or a gel reader equipped with visible light excitation; such as, a 488 nm laser-based gel scanner.


DNA SafeStain Plus is in a 10,000X concentrated format that can be easily diluted 10,000 times for use in precast gel staining, or 5,000 times for use in post gel staining.

Samples stained with DNA SafeStain Plus are compatible with downstream molecular biology applications; such as, gel extraction, and cloning.

Need great (q)PCR Regents at a great price?

Try our PR1MA™ Taq and save!


Bullseye Taq Plus Master Mix 

  • Pre-optimized ready-to-use PCR reagents
  • Less pipetting to avoid contamination
  • Quick and easy to set up
  • Direct loading for electrophoresis
  • Reproducible results

Users only need to add templates and primers, and water if needed. Extra 25 mM magnesium solution is also provided for additional fine adjustments. The Red Mixes contain a non-hazardous inert red dye. The purple mixes contain a non-hazardous inert purple dye. Completed PCR reactions utilizing the D124-R (red dye) or D124-P (purple dye) can be directly loaded into a well of agarose gel or other gels, for electrophoresis. No extra loading buffer is needed.

Storage: 4°C for up to one month, or -20°C for long term storage.

Magnesium Chloride: In general, 1.5 mM MgCl2 is recommended; this may vary with different conditions and primer sets. Some primers/templates may require adjustments for MgCl2 concentration, which can be achieved as shown below:

Final MgCl2 concentration1.5 mM2.0 mM2.5 mM
Additional 25 mM MgCl2 per 50 uL reaction0.0 uL1.0 uL2.0 uL

Directions for use: For a 50 uL reaction, use 25 uL of the Taq Master Mix, add template, primers, and water to a final volume of 50 uL. Cycling conditions vary for different templates and primers. To start with, try 30 cycles as follows: denature at 94°C for 30 seconds, anneal around 55°C for 30 seconds, and extend at 72°C for 1 minute / kb. After the PCR cycles, extend at 72°C for another five minutes to complete the PCR. Then store the reaction at 4°C.

1x Composition: 10 mM KCl, 20 mM Tris HCl (pH 9.0), 16 mM (NH4)2SO4, 0.1% Triton X-100, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 200 mM dNTPs, 2.5 units / 25 uL of Taq DNA polymerase, (optional: trace amount of red or purple dye) and enzyme stabilizers.

Bullseye RT 2X Master Mix

  • Up to 9kb cDNA synthesis
  • Ensures sample to sample consistency
  • Large RNA sample volume capacity
  • Ready to use

Size: 100 rxns

RT 2X Master Mix is a proprietary, ready-to-use master mix for first-strand cDNA synthesis in a 2X concentration. This optimized reaction mix contains ribonuclease inhibitor, dNTPs, and a balanced concentration for oligo(dT) and random primers. The ribonuclease inhibitor effectively protects RNA template from degradation. The oligo(dT) anneals selectively to the poly(A) tail of mRNAs and the random primers do not require the presence of poly(A) and they are utilized for the transcription of mRNA 5-end regions. The resultant cDNA can be directly used as template in different PCR experiments.
