GoTaq Probe 1-Step RT-qPCR System GoTaq Probe qpcr Master Mix Real - Time PCR For 1-Step RT-qPCR from RNA templates For the detection and relative quantification of RNA expression levels using a one-step RT-qPCR method, this system combines GoScript Reverse Transcriptase and GoTaq Probe qpcr Master Mix in single-step real-time amplification reaction. The GoTaq Probe qpcr Master Mix is formulated with dutp. When dutp is incorporated into the amplification products, the amplicons are susceptible to degradation by uracil-dna glycosylase (UNG); this allows users to incorporate UNG into subsequent reactions for control of possible carryover contamination. Ready-to-use, stabilised 2x formulation with all of the components for qpcr, just add template, primers and probe. GoTaq Probe qpcr Master Mix is designed to provide resistance to a wide range of PCR inhibitors. Using antibody-mediated hot-start chemistry, reaction set-up can be performed at room- temperature. The hot-start activation and processive enzymes make it suitable for both standard and fast instrument cycling programmes.
