Accuris Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase
SKU: PR1001-HSR-200
Accuris Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase ensures controlled enzyme activation, preventing non-specific amplification and enabling room-temperature reaction setup. Bound with a monoclonal antibody, it remains inactive until heat-activated at 95°C. Ideal for low-copy PCR, multiplexing, and GC-rich templates, it is available in 5X buffer format or a ready-to-use 2X Master Mix, with an optional Red Dye Master Mix for direct gel loading.

Accuris Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase Features
Accuris Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase is designed for high-specificity PCR applications, providing exceptional sensitivity and reliability. Unlike standard Taq polymerases, this enzyme is bound with a monoclonal antibody that blocks its activity until heat activation at 95°C. This prevents non-specific amplification and primer-dimer formation, allowing reaction setup at room temperature without compromising results.
Optimized for Challenging PCR Applications
Accuris Hot Start Taq is particularly well-suited for:
- Low-copy number PCR, ensuring accurate detection of scarce DNA targets.
- Multiplex PCR, enabling amplification of multiple targets in a single reaction.
- GC-rich DNA amplification, overcoming template complexities for consistent, high-yield results.
Flexible Formats for Workflow Efficiency
The polymerase is supplied with a 5X buffer, optimized for fast cycling and high reproducibility. For added convenience, it is also available in a 2X Master Mix, which simplifies PCR setup by combining the enzyme, buffer, and essential reaction components.
For users performing gel electrophoresis, the Red Dye Master Mix incorporates a built-in loading dye, allowing direct sample loading onto agarose gels. The red dye enhances pipetting visibility, and the buffer's density ensures proper well placement, reducing processing steps.
