General description

REDTaq® SuperPak DNA Polymerase is Sigma′s Taq DNA Polymerase mixed with an inert red dye. REDTaq® SuperPak DNA Polymerase is a convenient package, that includes all the necessary components for a PCR reaction except primers, DNA template and water. It consists of Sigma′s high quality REDTaq DNA polymerase, 10 mM ultrapure deoxynucleotide mix and 10´ PCR reaction buffer. The dye provides quick recognition of reactions to which enzyme has been added as well as visual confirmation of complete mixing.

Application

REDTaq® SuperPak DNA Polymerase has been used in:
  • reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)
  • nested PCR
  • routine PCR amplification

Features and Benefits

  • Contains inert dye that enables visual confirmation of enzyme addition and direct loading onto agarose gel without the need for an additional loading dye
  • Suitable for nested PCR
  • Contains ultrapure 10mM dNTP mix in a separate vial
