PHUSA PCR MIX V1214.02 Description - PHUSA PCR Mix is a preconditioned gel containing Taq DNA polymerase, dNTPs with optimum concentration for one (1) reaction, packed ready to use in a standard PCR tube. - Shelf life : 1 month - Delivered with 2 buffers to be used for 25l or 50l PCR condition: For 25l reaction volume, use the PHUSA Mix Buffer-V25 (1X) For 50l reaction volume, use the PHUSA Mix Buffer-V50 (1X) General Protocol Use the following table to make your final mix: Components 25µL PCR volume 50µL PCR volume PHUSA PCR Mix 5l 5l PHUSA Mix Buffer-V25 15l N/A PHUSA Mix Buffer-V50 N/A 45l (4 - 7l) (4 - 7l) (Adjust to your optimal primers (Adjust to your optimal primers & templates condition) & templates condition) 25l 50l Primer (F+R) mix + DNA template Total Volume/1 reaction Typical PCR program: Temperature (°C) Time Number of Cycle First denaturation 95°C 3-5 min 1 Denaturation 95°C 30 sec 30-40 Annealing Ta 30 sec Extension 72°C 1 min /kb 72°C 5 – 10 min Complete PCR product 1 * Ta: Annealing temperature depends on the designed primer pair * Quality Testing of Phusa PCR Mix: Quality of Phusa PCR Mix is evaluated by the comparison of PCR product formed from Solution Master Mix (as Reference sample) and Phusa PCR Mix (Investigated Sample) 200bp Reference Samples Investigated Samples Agarose gel electrophoresis Result of Quality Testing - PHUSA PCR Mix can be used with your current PCR protocols without any limitation. - Following is the general way to handle PHUSA PCR Mix: add to the Mix the buffer, the DNA and primers, then place the PCR tube into the PCR machine WITHOUT ANY VORTEXING prior running the PCR. - Once the PCR is done, the sample can be used in Agarose gel analysis as usual. If it was conserved at 4-100C for a long period of time (more than 1h), a preheating at 85oC for 5 minutes of the PCR sample is recommended before analysis. Storage Temperature recommended: 4oC – 30oC - Avoid direct sunlight exposure WARNING: DO NOT KEEP AT FREEZING TEMPERATURE (below 0*C) WARNING: DO NOT VORTEX
