General description

KiCqStart SYBR Green qPCR ReadyMix is a 2X concentrated, ready-to-use master mix that contains all components, except primers and template, for real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) This unique combination of proprietary buffer, stabilizers, and Hot-Start Taq DNA polymerase delivers maximum PCR efficiency, sensitivity, specificity and robust fluorescent signal using fast, or conventional, cycling protocols with SYBR Green qPCR.

Highly specific amplification is crucial to successful qPCR with SYBR Green I dye technology because this dye binds to and detects any dsDNA generated during amplification. Hot-Start Taq DNA polymerase is antibody mediated to be inactive prior to the initial PCR denaturation step.

Application

KiCqStart® SYBRSYB® Green qPCR ReadyMix has been used:

  • in the amplification and quantification of cDNA reverse transcribed from RNA extracted from mice brain samples in a 2-step RT-qPCR assay
  • to analyze DNA purified by ChIP technique
  • to perform gene expression analysis
  • in amplification of RNA isolated from hearts of adult TL wild-type fish by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
PCR applications:
  • Gene expression
  • DNA quantification
  • CHiP

Features and Benefits

  • Assay results in as little as 33 minutes
  • Highly efficient and sensitive real-time PCR results
  • Little/no optimization required

Components

2X reaction buffer containing optimized concentrations of MgCl2, dNTPs, (dATP, dCTP, dGTP, dTTP), KiCqStart Taq DNA Polymerase, SYBR Green dye, ROX Reference Dye (for 580-585 nm excitation), and stabilizers.

packaging:
250 reactions* = 2 X 1.25 mL tubes
1250 reactions* = 10 X 1.25 mL tubes
5000 reactions* = 1 X 50 mL tube
*number of reactions based on a 20uL volume

Other Notes

Storage Conditions:
KiCqStart SYBR Green qPCR ReadyMix is stable for 1 year when stored in a constant temperature freezer at -20°C, protected from light. For convenience, it may be stored unfrozen at +2 to +8°C for up to 6 months. After thawing, mix thoroughly before using. Repeated freezing and thawing of the product is not recommended. However, the product demonstrated no loss of performance after 20 freeze-thaw cycles or 2 months at +20°C.

Articles

After a traditional PCR has been completed, the PCR/qPCR data analysis is conducted by resolution through an agarose gel or, more recently, through a capillary.

PCR assay guide navigates you through primer validation and other assay optimization factors to ensure high sensitivity and specificity for optimum DNA/ RNA quantification.

Real-time polymerase chain reaction allows researchers to estimate the quantity of starting material in a sample. It has a much wider dynamic range of analysis than conventional PCR

Protocols

Quantitative PCR protocol using SYBR Green reagents. Procedure supports most qPCR instruments.

Optimization of qPCR conditions is important for the development of a robust assay. The two main approaches are optimization of primer concentration and/or annealing temperatures.

Analysis of gene expression data requires a stable reference or loading control. This reference is usually one or more reference genes.

SYBR Green I dye in qPCR measures target quantity, adaptable to specific needs with a standard protocol.
