qPCR SuperMixes with ROX for ABI instruments are ready-to-use reaction mixes for high-specificity, real-time amplification of cDNA, genomic DNA or plasmid DNA. ROX reference dye is included in the mix for maximum convenience. These qPCR SuperMixes include:


–Platinum® Taq DNA Polymerase: activates faster and more completely than other hot-start enzymes to deliver more sensitive amplification (Figure 1)

–Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (UDG): prevents carryover contamination in conjunction with dUTP (included) for improved specificity
–ROX reference dye premixed at optimal concentration for ABI instruments


qPCR SuperMixes with ROX are available in two formats:

–Platinum® SYBR® Green qPCR SuperMix-UDG with ROX provides a sensitive, cost-effective system for real-time PCR detection with SYBR® Green I dye (Figure 2)
–Platinum® qPCR SuperMix-UDG with ROX offers superior performance with either fluorogenic primers (e.g., LUX™ Primers) or probe-based detection systems (e.g., TaqMan®)
