Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix is an optimized blend of PCR enzymes that is a proven balance of high yield and high fidelity (with 3X higher fidelity than regular Taq) for cDNA amplification and library construction. With an automatic hot-start feature, our Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix can readily amplify a wide range of DNA templates, including long templates up to 18 kb, and complex genomic DNA up to 6 kb. The Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix includes two optimized buffers. dNTPs need to be purchased separately.
Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix is perfect for PCR applications requiring accuracy, such as RACE PCR, cDNA amplification, library construction, and PCR subtraction. Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix is highly recommended for applications downstream of our SMART(er) method for cDNA synthesis.
Advantage 2 Polymerase Mix is also available in a complete PCR kit that includes dNTPs and PCR controls, or in a ready-to-use, lyophilized format (High Fidelity PCR EcoDry Premix).
Overview
- Unique blend of enzymes provides nearly error-free amplification—almost 3-fold higher fidelity than wild-type Taq
- Exceptionally high yields and sensitivity with almost any target DNA up to 5 kb
- Pre-optimized buffer eliminates the need to optimize reaction conditions
- Integrated hot-start Ab allows room temperature reaction setup and increased specificity
- Available in a lyophilized format as High Fidelity PCR EcoDry Premix, which is convenient for room-temperature shipment and storage
