DirecTaq DNA polymerase 1X Master Mix saves time and cost by enabling direct PCR amplification of unpurified templates. It contains a recombinant, truncated (lacks 5’ to 3’ exonuclease activity), highly thermostable DNA polymerase from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus. The enzyme is thermostable up to 98 °C for polymerase chain reaction assays and is provided as a complete reaction master mix consisting of reaction buffer, dNTPs, MgCl2, and loading dye and only requires the addition of primers and DNA template. Once PCR is complete, the reaction products can be loaded directly into an agarose gel for analysis.
Important note: Please be sure to use the buffer provided with this product to ensure optimal results.
