PR1MA™ Taq

• Ideal for routine PCR applications as well as genotyping, colony PCR, and fast PCR
• Improved template affinity and solubility for higher enzyme activity and greater yields
• Proprietary buffer optimized for a variety of assay conditions
• Conveniently supplied as a 2X Master Mix or in a 2-tube format of polymerase and separate 5X buffer

PR1MA™ Taq provides superior results for routine applications. Modified to improve DNA-binding, this polymerase offers higher solubility and greater template affinity, resulting in consistently superior performance. PR1MA™ Taq Polymerase exhibits a 5' to 3' nuclease activity, but no 3' to 5' (proofreading) activity and works well with a wide range of DNA templates including GC-rich sequences.

The polymerase is supplied with a 5X buffer containing MgCl2 and a proprietary mix of enhancers (dNTP's not included). For convenience, PR1MA Taq is also available in a ready-to-use 2X Master Mix - just add primers and template DNA. Our "Red Dye" Master Mix incorporates a red-loading dye that allows amplified samples to be loaded directly on an agarose gel.  The red color aids in visualization during pipetting, and higher density of the buffer ensures that the samples will drop into the gel wells.

Accuris Compact balances have been designed to meet the basic needs of academic and research labs requiring weight determinations to increments of 0.01g to 0.1 g. Their reliable and precise weighing technology utilizes gold-plated, ceramic capacitors to determine sample mass. 

• Compact housing: 7.5 x 11 inch footprint
• Readability 0.1 to 0.01g
• Easy in-lab calibration feature
• RS232 port for data output to a computer or printer
• Multiple mode options (standard weighing, count mode, & percent)
• Simple, reliable performance

Accuris Compact balances have been designed to meet the basic needs of academic and research labs requiring weight determinations to increments of 0.01g to 0.1 g. Their reliable and precise weighing technology utilizes gold-plated, ceramic capacitors to determine sample mass.

The Compact line includes 6 models covering a wide range of maximum weight capacities. The lower capacity units (120g, 300g, and 500g) are readable to 0.01 g, and come with a draft shield ring to prevent air currents from affecting measurements. These models feature a 4.5-inch diameter, stainless steel weigh pan.  The larger capacity models (1000g, 5000g, and 10,000g) do not include the draft shield ring, come with larger weighing pans of 6.3 to 7-inch diameter, and are readable to 0.1g.

All balances in the Accuris Compact line offer large, brightly lit LCD panels, and are easy to operate using the intuitive and splash-resistant control panel.  Different modes allow weight to be displayed in various units: grams, ounces, carats, and simple programs can be used for piece counting and percent deviation weighing.

Leveling feet are located toward the front of the balance for easy access, and a leveling bubble in the control panel is easy to see for quick and simple leveling on the lab bench. The balances can be calibrated using a calibration weight and a few keystrokes on the control panel - just select a calibration point in the calibration mode, place the calibration weight onto the weighing pan, and press the "CAL" button.

Lightweight, and small in size, Accuris Compact balances will provide years of trouble-free service.

• Convenient cDNA synthesis and PCR in a single tube from 1 pg total RNA
• Formulated for highly specific and sensitive RT-PCR from any RNA templates
• Incorporates thermostable reverse transcriptase and Hot-Start Taq for preparation at room temperature

The PR1MA™ One-Step RT-PCR Kit has been formulated for cDNA synthesis and subsequent PCR in a single tube for end-point analysis. This latest generation RT-PCR Kit consists of an MMLV-derived, thermostable Reverse Transcriptase (45°C to 55°C), an advanced RNase Inhibitor and PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq for ultra-sensitive one-step RT-PCR from as little as 1pg total RNA starting material.

The optimized buffer chemistry allows for efficient reverse transcription and PCR of problematic sequences with significant secondary structure (such as GC-rich targets). The PR1MA One-Step RT-PCR Kit is ideal for determining the presence or absence of RNA templates and quantifying expression through qualitative analysis of RNA transcription levels. The kit also efficiently synthesizes double-stranded cDNA for subsequent gene expression analysis.

PR1MA™ dNTPs

• Supplied as a ready-to-use 40 mM mix or a set of 4 separate 100 mM solutions
• Free of impurities and inhibitors that reduce sensitivity and yield
• No nuclease, protease or nickase activity
• >99% pure, purified by HPLC
• 24-month shelf life

PR1MA™ dNTP's are purified by HPLC in a strict process that results in greater than 99% purity. The stringent purification process eliminates PCR inhibitors such as tetraphosphates and pyrophosphates that can interfere with the sensitivity of your PCR and reduce yields.
The 40 mM dNTP Mix is a single tube that contains premixed dNTPs at a concentration of 10 mM each. The 100 mM dNTP Set contains four individual tubes, one each of dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP. The nucleotides are supplied in ultra-pure water as an ammonium salt. Both the set and mix are stable for 24 months when stored at -20ºC.

Extensive quality control testing is performed to ensure the dNTPs are free of nuclease, protease and nickase activity. Each lot is performance tested in standard PCR, long PCR and qPCR reactions to assess reproducibility and sensitivity.

 PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq

• Exceptional sensitivity for low-copy PCR
• Ideal for multiplex PCR and amplification of GC-rich DNA
• Same enhanced features as PR1MA Taq Polymerase
• Buffer optimized for fast cycling and reproducibility 

Engineered for controlled polymerase activity, PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq is bound with a monoclonal antibody that blocks enzyme activity. This allows reactions to be set up at room temperature without the risk of non-specific amplification.

When samples are ready, the reaction mixture is heated to 95°C to denature the antibody and initiate the reaction. Similar to the standard PR1MA™ Taq, Hot Start Taq is provided with a 5X buffer, or in a ready-to-use 2X Master Mix. The Master Mix can be ordered with or without an incorporated red gel loading dye.  The Red Dye Master Mix incorporates a red-loading dye that allows amplified samples to be loaded directly on an agarose gel.  The red color aids in visualization during pipetting, and higher density of the buffer ensures that the samples will drop into the gel wells.
