COMPARISON BETWEEN TAQ OPTIMIX CLEAR 2x Master Mix AND THREE COMPETITORS

Taq OptiMix CLEAR was compared with corresponding Taq DNA Polymerase master mixes from three well recognised competitors; T,K and N. Six different primer targets (BAIP, Q8, CFTR, ENG5, ENG9 and PAH) were evaluated. Taq OptMix CLEAR performed equally well or better on all six primer targets tested in this set up. Each amplification was conducted according to supplier’s manual.
