UPstart Taq Antibody

$705.00

The UPstart Taq Antibody (1 mg/mL) is an ultra-pure monoclonal antibody against the Taq DNA polymerase. PCR hot start prevents the formation of primer–dimers and nonspecific amplification and allows convenient PCR setup at room temperature. The UPstart Taq Antibody (1 mg/mL) is for research use only and not to be used for diagnostic procedures.

UPstart Taq Antibody

In the first denaturation step of the thermal cycling, the UPstart Taq Antibody becomes nonfunctional and the active Taq DNA polymerase is released. This antibody-mediated hot-start method is significantly more convenient to use than other hot-start methods. Polymerase reactivation using this antibody is faster than with methods using chemically inhibited polymerases.
Unit Definition: One unit is defined as the amount of antibody required to inhibit >95% of 1 unit Taq DNA polymerase at 60°C. One unit UPstart Taq Antibody (200 ng of the antibody) will ensure inhibition of Taq DNA polymerase.

This UPstart Taq Antibody is manufactured in Germany by biotechrabbit.
