Invitrogen™ Platinum Taq Monoclonal Antibody

Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ 10965028

Catalog No. 10-965-028

Description

One unit of Taq DNA polymerase incorporates 10 nmol of deoxyribonucleotide into DNA in 30 minutes at 74ºC. One unit is defined as the amount of product required to inhibit one unit of Taq DNA polymerase. PCR Functional Assay Specifications: PCR reactions containing 100 ng, 10 ng, and 5 ng of input human genomic DNA yield 40 ng, 10 ng, and 5 ng of an 800 bp target, respectively, when observed on an ethidium bromide stained gel. In a radioactive nucleotide incorporation assay, Taq DNA polymerase activity has been successfully inhibited by 10965-010.

Platinum® Taq Antibody is a proprietary inhibitor which, when bound to Taq DNA polymerase, inactivates polymerase activity. This reagent provides an automatic hot start for Taq DNA polymerase in PCR. Hot starts are typically used in PCR to increase sensitivity, specificity, and yield while allowing assembly of reactions at ambient temperatures. The extra time, effort, and contamination risks associated with manual hot start procedures are addressed with the use of Platinum® Taq Antibody.
