The Applied Biosystems Absolute Q Universal DNA dPCR Master Mix (5X) is designed to lower the barrier to entry for digital PCR (dPCR). It provides you with access to more than 20 million predesigned Applied Biosystems TaqMan Assays for use on your Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Absolute Q Digital PCR System and QuantStudio Absolute Q AutoRun dPCR Suite. Hereas how it can help revolutionize your research.
Optimized Digital PCR PerformanceThis master mix is formulated specifically for the Absolute Q Digital PCR System, ensuring high efficiency during DNA target quantification. Its proprietary enzyme blend and balanced buffer system maximize sensitivity and compatibility with both hydrolysis probes and intercalating dyes, supporting precise and reproducible results even for rare targets.
Flexible DNA Sample CompatibilityCompatible with a variety of DNA types-including genomic DNA (gDNA), complementary DNA (cDNA), or pre-amplified amplicons-this master mix streamlines workflows. Whether quantifying abundant sequences or rare mutations, consistent reaction conditions allow researchers to detect and quantify targets with confidence.
Reliable & Stable Reagent for Advanced GeneticsStoring the master mix at -20C ensures up to twelve months of consistent performance, provided freeze-thaw cycles are minimized. The clear to off-white solution is a ready-to-use consumable, ideal for single-use digital PCR applications and reliable across a wide dynamic range of DNA concentrations.
