Life Technologies' TaqMan® EZ RT-PCR Core Reagents without Controls combine rTth DNA polymerase with the fluorogenic 5' nuclease assay in a one-step reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) format. This format is ideally suited to high sample throughput and high-temperature reverse transcription, which is beneficial when amplifying RNA that contains secondary structure. The kit includes reagents sufficient for 200 PCR reactions of 50 µl each.

Features of TaqMan® EZ RT-PCR Core Reagent:
• Separate components provide flexibility in assay setup
• AmpErase® UNG protects against subsequent re-amplifications from PCR products containing dU, minimizing carry-over contamination
• Tth DNA polymerase is optimal for high-temperature reverse transcription and PCR in a single tube
• Passive Reference normalizes signal in all TaqMan® Assay reactions and corrects inter-well signal variation caused by differences in reaction volume
