Application

KAPA PROBE FORCE has been used for:GMO testingMouse transgenicsSNP genotypingFood/water pathogen detectionInfectious disease researchCancer researchDNA quantificationQuantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)Digital droplet PCRFor amplification of templates directly from cDNA synthesis reactions

Features and Benefits

Streamline sample-to-Cq workflows in ﹤1 hour: Eliminate the time and cost of sample purification by amplifying directly from crude samples Analyze a wide range of sample types including whole blood, cells, mouse tails, FFPE, leaf, stem, seed, and soilGenerate accurate and reproducible results: Kits include a third-generation DNA polymerase, evolved for robust target amplification and detection Enzyme maintains high reaction efficiency in the presence of PCR inhibitors for reliable data generationBreak through high levels of qPCR inhibitors: Achieve greater levels of sensitivity for inhibited blood, tissue, and plant samples Convert purified DNA assays to crude workflows without observable Cq delaysMultiplex crude samples efficiently: Accelerate genotyping analysis with single reaction allelic discrimination of crude DNA extracts Maximize data collection from precious samples, increase throughput, and reduce costsQuick Notes: This kit contains the KAPA3G HotStart DNA Polymerase enzyme, enabling probe-based qPCR for both routine and challenging sample types. Initial denaturation of 3 min at 98°C is recommended to ensure complete denaturation of complex target DNA. A 5-min denaturation time may be required for some crude samples. For two-step cycling, use a 20-sec combined annealing/extension/data acquisition at 60°C as a first approach. A 10-sec annealing/extension/data acquisition time may be used with most assays, but this must be determined empirically. For crude samples, the amount of sample in the reaction may be reduced to improve performance, but this must be determined empirically.

General description

KAPA PROBE FORCE is a highly inhibitor resistant qPCR master mix that removes the need for DNA purification, enabling streamlined sample-to-Cq workflows. The master mix contains a third generation DNA polymerase evolved to overcome blood, tissue, and plant PCR inhibitors. Crude samples can now be analyzed with comparable accuracy, reproducibility, and sensitivity as purified DNA using KAPA PROBE FORCE. Direct qPCR from crude blood, tissue, and plant extracts Sample-to-Cq workflows in ﹤1 hour High efficiency for accurate, reproducible, and sensitive results Superior tolerance to carry-over inhibitors Multiplex compatibility with crude extracts
