Canvax Horse-Power™ Taq DNA Polymerase 500U (1U/uL)

Horse-Power™ Taq DNA Polymerase, highly purified (>98%) for routine amplifications, 1 U/µL, 500 U.

Horse-Power™ Taq DNA Polymerase is a pure, versatile and thermostable recombinant enzyme produced in an E. coli strain, which carries the cloned pol gene from Thermus aquaticus. The enzyme has 5’→3’ polymerase activity and a weak 5’→3’ exonuclease activity but no 3’→5’ exonuclease activity.

Main Features:

• Highest purity, greater than 98%
• Highest quality, high activity, specificity, thermostability and performance in PCR
• Highly efficient, reactivation buffer improved
• Thermostable, half-life at 94 ºC is 40 minutes
• Adds extra nucleotides: preferentially adenine, without template at 3´ends leaving 3´overhangs PCR fragments
• Incorporates modified nucleotides: biotinylated, fluorescently labelled, etc
• Molecular Weight of 94 kDa
• Available in different concentrations, sizes and solutions
• Complete solution with MgCl2
• Risk-free: product covered by Canvax Quality 100% Guarantee.

Applications:

• Routine amplifications
• Colony screening
• Amplifications up to 5 kb using plasmid, viral or genomic DNA as template
• PCR fragments amplification for TA or GC cloning
