General description

PCRboost® is a unique reagent that enhances end-point and reverse transcription-PCR performance by improving sensitivity and specificity during amplification of genomic DNA or RNA templates. To use, simply replace the water in your PCR with PCRboost®. That′s all. It is designed to enhance the amplification of DNA without the need for time consuming optimizations. PCRboost® successfully amplifies thermally degraded DNA resulting in a visible amplicon that can be used for downstream applications such as cloning and sequencing.

Don′t see what you are looking for? Custom stabilization services for molecular diagnostic assay and reagent manufacturers are available through Sigma′s partner, Biomatrica. PCRstable® enables the preservation of PCR-based assay components in any format (liquid or dry).

Features and Benefits

Boost PCR results for:

  • Degraded FFPE samples and bisulphite-treated samples (methylation studies)
  • Multiplex PCR
  • Low-copy transcripts
  • Samples containing inhibitory factors (i.e. humic acid, heme, and indigo dye)

No changes to your PCR protocol. Simply replace the water in 
your reaction.

PCR products are compatible with all downstream applications.
