Quantabio PerfeCTa Multiplex qPCR SuperMix is a 2X concentrated, ready-to-use reaction cocktail that contains all the necessary components except primers, probe(s), and DNA template for highly-multiplexed, real-time quantitative PCR. This reagent formulation pushes the boundary of multiplex qPCR by enabling unbiased amplification of up to 5 targets in a single amplification reaction. Suppression of low abundance targets by high abundance reference targets during co-amplification is a common problem in multiplex PCR in which individual assay sensitivity can be significantly compromised. PerfeCTa Multiplex qPCR SuperMix, Low ROX delivers assay performance with exceptionally broad, linear detection and limit-of-detection (LOD) sensitivity to multiplexed qPCR that is comparable to single-plex assay performance without the need for rigorous titration of individual primer assays. A key component of this SuperMix is ultra-pure AccuStart hot start Taq DNA polymerase that is completely arrested prior to the initial PCR denaturation step. Upon heat activation at 95°C, the antibodies are rapidly and irreversibly denatured, releasing a fully active high-yielding Taq DNA polymerase mutant. This enables specific and efficient primer extension with the convenience of ambient room-temperature reaction assembly.
