Description

Thermo Scientific™ Phire Plant Direct PCR Master Mix is designed to amplify DNA directly from plant samples. No DNA purification is required prior to PCR. The kit is based on Phire Hot Start II DNA Polymerase, a specially engineered enzyme with a DNA binding domain. The unique features of this DNA polymerase make it extremely robust and tolerant of many PCR inhibitors present in plant material like complex polysaccharides, polyphenols and others. Phire Plant Direct PCR Master Mix has been tested with leaves and seeds from a wide variety of plant species. The kit includes a complete set of optimized reagents, detailed protocols making it an ideal choice for amplification of plant DNA. When combined with Thermo Scientific™ Arktik™ Thermal Cycler, PCR protocols can be completed in as little as 40 minutes.

Highlights

• Direct PCR - sample is added directly to PCR reaction, therefore there is no need for time-consuming and expensive DNA purification steps.
• Dilution & Storage protocol available - allows tens of PCR reactions from one tiny sample and allows re-testing
• Specially engineered Phire Hot Start II DNA polymerase - extremely short PCR protocol times
• Master Mix format with premixed gel loading dye - minimizes possibility of cross-contamination, reduces sample handling and allows direct loading on gel
