71975  KOD Xtreme™ Hot Start DNA Polymerase

KOD system optimized for difficult targets

The KOD Xtreme™ Hot Start DNA Polymerase* kit is an optimized PCR system for the amplification of long or GC-rich DNA templates. The unique formulation enables you to amplify directly from minimally processed samples; allowing highly efficient crude sample PCR target amplification. The system includes an ultra high fidelity KOD DNA polymerase complexed with two monoclonal antibodies to permit hot start thermocycling, along with specially formulated 2X buffer. KOD Xtreme Hot Start DNA Polymerase quickly and accurately amplifies genomic and phage/plasmid DNA targets up to 24 and 40 kbp, respectively. KOD Xtreme Hot Start DNA Polymerase successfully amplifies challenging DNA templates with up to 90% GC content. Each kit provides 200 U KOD Xtreme Hot Start DNA Polymerase, an optimized buffer and dNTPs sufficient for 200 amplification reactions. The polymerase produces blunt-ended DNA products suitable for cloning with the Novagen Perfectly Blunt^® and LIC Vector Kits.
