Quantitative RT-PCR


Quantitative Reverse Transcriptase PCR (QRT–PCR) provides a highly sensitive method for the quantitative analysis of gene expression. Sigma's QRT–PCR ReadyMixes combine the advantages of Enhanced Avian Reverse Transcriptase (eAMVTM RT) and JumpStart Taq in a convenient ReadyMix designed for either probe based or SYBR based QRT–PCR. Regardless of difficult secondary structures or detection chemistry, Sigma's QRT–PCR ReadyMixes are specially formulated to help you achieve superior results.

  • Increased Thermostability and Processivity
    eAMV reverse transcriptase has the ability to transcribe through difficult secondary structures at elevated temperature (up to 65 °C).
  • Greater Specificity & Sensitivity
    Inactivated by a taq–directed antibody, Sigma's JumpStart Taq enzyme decreases non–specific amplification while enhancing target yield.
  • Maximum Versatility
    Probe based or SYBR based detection, our RT kits are optimized to help you achieve superior results and compatible with both tube/plate based instruments and capillary based instruments.
