Air-Taq™ Polymerase Complete qPCR Mix (2x)

From $35.00

Performance and Benchmarking

Airobes' qPCR mix shows exceptional repeatability. (left) The coefficient of variation was <1% for starting DNA amounts ranging from 2ng – 20 femtograms. n = 6 replicates. (right) The coefficient of variation was was <1% for DNA product sizes of 150bp, 500bp, 1000bp, and 2000bp. n = 6 replicates.

Includes Hot-Start Taq Polymerase

High-performance 2x concentrated qPCR master mix with SYBR® Green I and low ROX. Ideal for quantitative PCR applications including cDNA amplification, genotyping, and more.

About This Product

Airobes recombinant Taq DNA Polymerase is a thermostable enzyme with carbon molecules sourced from CO₂ in the air. Taq Polymerase synthesizes DNA from single-stranded templates in the presence of dNTPs, a magnesium cofactor, and primers. This recombinant enzyme is cloned from Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase and expressed in a proprietary strain of E. coli. It consists of a single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 94 kDa. It has a 5' to 3' DNA polymerase activity and 5' to 3' exonuclease activity.

Key Features

Convenience: Ready-to-use 2x PCR Master Mix. Simply add the provided DNA, primers, and water

Sustainable: Protein carbon sourced from captured CO₂

Balanced Yield and Specificity: Optimized buffer system with potassium chloride and ammonium sulfate

High Efficiency: >90%

Highly Repeatable: Coefficient of Variation <1% for copy numbers ranging from 10³ - 10⁸ and amplicon size ranging from 100 - 2000 base pairs.

Linear: R² > 0.99 across a 6-log dynamic range spanning 10³ - 10⁸ copies

Applications

qPCR (quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction)
Endpoint PCR
T/A Cloning
Genotyping
Environmental and Microbial Screening by 16S rRNA
cDNA Amplification
Educational and Teaching Labs

Technical Notes


  • One unit of Taq Polymerase catalyzes the incorporation of 10 nmol of dNTPs (deoxyribonucleotides) into a polynucleotide fraction in 30 min at 74°C

  • Includes hot-start Taq DNA Polymerase. Use a 15 minute activation time at 94-95°C

  • Recommended starting copy number between 10³ - 10⁸ copies.

  • For best performance, we recommend an amplicon size ≤300bp. However, DNA product sizes up to 2kb have been verified to amplify with this mix.

    For 2kb amplicons, use a 2-3 minute extension time and (at least) 35 cycles.

  • Contains SYBR® Green I and (low) ROX Passive Reference Dye for qPCR applications

  • Includes nuclease-free water for convenient reaction setup

  • We have performed degradation testing and guarantee product functionality when stored at -20°C upon delivery.
