ABScript II One Step RT-qPCR Probe Kit

General description

The ABScript II One Step RT-qPCR Probe Kit is a convenient, ready-to-use kit with optimized components for use for reverse transcription and subsequent probe-based qPCR. The one-step format prevents contamination and allows for higher sensitivity. This kit is ideal for analyzing low input RNA samples.

Application

For use in real-time RT-PCR (or RT-qPCR) applications, including detection of RNA in samples being analyzed. The ABScript II One Step RT-qPCR Probe Kit is a ready-to-use kit for reverse transcription and subsequent probe-based qPCR in a single tube. The ABScript II Reverse Transcriptase in the kit provides reliable reverse transcription of RNA. After reverse transcription, the hot-start version of Taq polymerase is activated at 95°C and the ABScript II Reverse Transcriptase is inactivated simultaneously. In the sequential PCR reaction, the 5′-3′ exonuclease activity of Taq polymerase cleaves the hybridized probe, separating the reporter from the quencher and releasing fluorescent signal.

For Research Use Only.
