* The preconditioning condition is suitable for the vast majority of amplification reactions and can be adjusted according to the complexity of the template. If the template structure is complex, the preconditioning time can be extended to 5-10 minutes to improve the preconditioning effect.
** The annealing temperature needs to be adjusted according to the Tm value of the primer, generally set at 3 to 5 ℃ lower than the Tm value of the primer; for complex templates, the annealing temperature needs to be adjusted and the extension time extended to achieve efficient amplification.

Guidelines

1. It needs to be dissolved completely before use to prevent uneven ion concentration.

2. The number of cycles should be selected according to the purpose of the experiment. If the number of cycles is too small, it will lead to insufficient amplification; if the number of cycles is too large, the amplification will increase, but the mutation rate will also increase, and non-specific amplification will occur.

3. Set the appropriate annealing temperature according to the Tm value of the primer. If the annealing temperature is too low, it will cause non-specific amplification; if it is too high, it may not be amplified.

4. Because Taq DNA Polymerase also has certain reaction activity at room temperature, the PCR reaction system should be prepared on ice and then placed in the PCR instrument for reaction. This can reduce non-specific amplification that occurs during the preparation of the reaction and help obtain high specificity amplification results.

Picture

Bioactivity

Using 5ng λ DNA (48502bp) as the template, the amplification primers for the target fragments of 500bp to 6kb were designed. The amplification was carried out using UA 2 × Taq Master Mix and the 2 × Taq Mix after repeated freeze-thawing. The similar product of competitor company N was used as a control. The figure shows the results of the amplified, and the amplified range of the UA product is consistent with that of the competitive product N, and the amplified ability is stronger.
Its amplification length can reach 6 kb, and it can efficiently amplify fragments of 4 kb and below. When stored at -20℃, the activity of UA products can remain stable after repeated freezing and thawing for more than 15 times.
