Description

Includes

Platinum Pfx DNA Polymerase (100 units total, at 2.5U/μL) is a supplied with a vial (1mL) of 10X PCRx Enhancer solution, a vial (1mL) of 10X Pfx amplification buffer, and a vial (1mL) of 50mM MgSO₄. Designed for 100 reactions (at 1 unit each in a 50μL reaction volume).

Platinum Pfx DNA Polymerase is ideal for amplification of DNA fragments for high-fidelity PCR applications.

Platinum Pfx DNA Polymerase is ideal for amplification of DNA fragments for high-fidelity PCR applications. High fidelity is provided by a proprietary enzyme preparation containing recombinant DNA polymerase from Thermococcusspecies KODwith proofreading (3'-5' exonuclease) activity. Platinumantibody technology provides a simple, automatic, hot-start method that improves PCR specificity. PCR_x Enhancer Solution is included for higher primer specificity, broader magnesium concentration allowances, broader annealing temperature parameters, and improved thermostability of PlatinumPfxDNA Polymerase. The PCR_x Enhancer Solution also helps optimize PCR of problematic and/or GC-rich templates.

• 26 times higher fidelity than Taq DNA polymerase
• Amplification of fragments up to 12 kb
• Room temperature reaction assembly

Applications
Amplification of DNA from complex genomic, viral, and plasmid templates; and RT-PCR. Platinum Pfx DNA Polymerase is especially effective when very high levels of fidelity are required.

Unit definition
One unit incorporates 10 nmoles of deoxyribonucleotide into acid-precipitable material in 30 minutes at 74°C.
