Assays
& Arrays |
TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays provide over 1.3 million predesigned primer/probe sets covering 23 species, the most comprehensive set of quantitative gene expression assays available. Alternatively, custom assays enable you to study the expression of any gene or splice variant in any organism. TaqMan® MicroRNA Assays Innovative TaqMan® Assays for microRNA and other small RNAs, as well as longer noncoding RNA transcripts such as pri-miRNAs and long noncoding RNA. We offer products for noncoding RNA discovery, profiling, quantitation, validation, and functional analysis. TaqMan® Assays for Genotyping & Genetic Variation Analysis The precision of TaqMan® probe-based chemistry makes SNP genotyping and copy number variation studies more accurate than ever. Choose from 4.5 million human and mouse TaqMan® SNP Genotyping Assays or design your own Custom TaqMan® SNP Genotyping Assays. For analysis of SNPs in genes for drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), we offer 2,700 unique TaqMan® DME Assays that detect polymorphisms in 221 genes for DMEs and associated transporter targets. For copy number variation studies, we offer over 1.6 million predesigned TaqMan® Copy Number Assays with human, genome-wide coverage, and mouse and marker/reporter assays. Custom and Custom Plus TaqMan® Copy Number Assay options are ideal when a predesigned assay for a target is not available. TaqMan® Mutation Detection Assays Competitive Allele-Specific TaqMan® PCR (castPCR™) technology detects and quantitates rare sequences in a background of common sequence by specifically blocking amplification of all but the rare-sequence variants. It has great potential for detection of rare mutations such as in circulating cancer cells. TaqMan® Protein Assays Revolutionary TaqMan® Protein Assays enable fast, easy identification, and relative quantification of protein markers from limited quantities of cultured cells. Choose from predesigned assays for human stem cell pluripotency markers and control proteins, or create your own assay from your biotinylated antibodies. Custom TaqMan® Assay Manufacturing & Plating Service If your research application requires special manufacturing modifications - such as a different dye or assay volume, or you would like to have your assays plated in a specific way, our custom services can help. |

Enzymes
& Kits |

SuperScript®
Reverse Transcription RNA must be converted to cDNA in order to be amplified using PCR. We recommend the Invitrogen™ SuperScript® VILO™ cDNA Synthesis Kit for reverse transcription prior to analyzing gene expression (mRNA), long noncoding RNA, and pri-miRNA using real-time PCR. For analysis of microRNA and other small RNAs using TaqMan® Assays, we recommend the TaqMan® MicroRNA Reverse Transcription Kit. One-Step Real-Time RT-PCR Kits In one-step RT-PCR, reagents and enzymes for both reverse transcription (RT) and real-time PCR are added to RNA samples at the same time. Reactions are first incubated using conditions favorable for RT, then the resulting cDNA is immediately run in a real-time PCR reaction.
With Sample-to-Answer Kits, crude sample lysates can be used directly in real-time PCR or one-step RT-PCR. No nucleic acid purification is required, saving time and reducing the chance of sample mixup or cross-contamination. Kits are available for gene expression, miRNA studies, and SNP genotyping.
Mixed with your DNA sample and PCR primers, MeltDoctor™ HRM Master Mix provides the reagents needed to discriminate subtle differences in the target DNA sequence using post-PCR melting analysis.
Specialized master mixes for use on the OpenArray® system. |
