Product Overview
This product is a special reagent for Real Time One Step RT-PCR using the probe method. Using this product for Real Time RT-PCR reaction can continuously perform reverse transcription and PCR amplification in the same reaction tube. It is simple to operate and can effectively prevent contamination. Since this reaction system can monitor the amplified products in real time, the detection sensitivity is greatly improved, and the electrophoresis step after PCR reaction is omitted, which is very suitable for the detection of RNA viruses. This product uses high-efficiency reverse transcriptase and high-specificity hot-start Taq DNA polymerase to perform stable and efficient Real Time One Step RT-PCR reactions. For the fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument that uses ROX as the calibration dye, this product is equipped with a separate ROX dye to correct the fluorescent signal error generated between the wells of the quantitative PCR instrument.
Template RNA input is 1 pg–1 µg per reaction, reaction volumes of 20 µL or 50 µL are recommended and amplified products are 80–250 bp. The program is reverse transcription at 50°C for 15 min, pre-denaturation at 95°C for 2 min, then 35–40 cycles of 95°C for 10 sec and 60–65°C for 30 sec.

Applications
- Real-time one-step RT-PCR using the probe method
- Detection of viral RNA in research samples
- Detection of trace RNA
Key Features
- Add RNA only: reverse transcription and PCR amplification run consecutively in the same PCR tube, keeping the operation simple.
- Real-time detection of amplified products greatly improves detection sensitivity and can effectively prevent contamination.
- The preferred third-generation reverse transcriptase is used in conjunction with the hot-start Taq enzyme to obtain optimal amplification and effectively reduce non-specific amplification.
- The electrophoresis step after the PCR reaction is omitted, which is very suitable for the detection of trace RNA.
Storage & Handling
All components are stored at -20°C with a shelf life of 2 years for both sizes. Avoid strong light.
Usage Notes
- Do not vortex the reagents.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
- Avoid strong light.
- Use filter tips and keep reagents on ice.
- Minimize contamination risk during setup.
