PCR
 |
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a technique that is central to molecular biology research. It used in applications such as cloning, gene expression analysis, genotyping, sequencing, and mutagenesis to name a few. Invitrogen offers an array of products to help you achieve PCR success. For enzymes, our AccuPrime™ technology provides specific primer-template hybridization in every cycle of PCR, while our Platinum® and AmpliTaq Gold® 360 technologies provide efficient hot starts for robust PCR performance.

Thermal cyclers
 | Applied Biosystems® Thermal cyclers have been trusted by researchers for years for providing reliable, robust results. And now with the easy-to-use Veriti® Thermal Cycler you can get more out of your thermal cycler.
|
 |
Fast PCR
 | Our specially developed fast enzymes, such as AmpliTaq Gold® Fast PCR Master Mix, decrease PCR run time from a traditional 2 hours to as little as 45 minutes or less, depending on your template size and thermal cycler parameters.
|
|
Hot Start PCR
 | We offer hot start technologies such as Platinum® and AmpliTaq Gold® 360 to provide you with high specificity for accurate, efficient PCR.
|
|
|
High-Fidelity PCR
 | Proofreading enzymes such as Platinum® Pfx DNA polymerase offer the highest fidelity (lowest error rate).
|
|
Long-Fragment PCR
 | For templates longer than 10 kb, we have designed high-yield hot start PCR enzyme blends containing Taq polymerase and a proofreading enzyme.
|
|
GC-Rich PCR
 | Specially developed PCR enzymes such as AccuPrime™ GC-Rich DNA Polymerase or AmpliTaq Gold 360 Master Mix are developed specifically to amplify through challenging GC-rich targets.
|
|
PCR Genotyping
 | Our PCR-based genotyping products include Platinum® GenoType Tsp DNA Polymerase, designed and qualified specifically for amplification of dinucleotide repeat markers.
|
|
Routine PCR
 | Basic Taq polymerases, such as AmpliTaq 360 DNA Polymerase, provide acceptable results for routine amplification, while Platinum® Taq and AmpliTaq Gold® 360 DNA Polymerases are ideal for more complex PCR applications.
