General description
Mineral oil is used as a reaction mix overlay in polymerase chain reactions (PCR) to prevent reaction solutions from evaporating during the thermal cycling in PCR instruments without heated lids.
Application
Mineral oil has been used:
- for routine PCR amplifications
- to improve the heat conductivity between the device and the cycler during reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) amplification
- to prevent evaporation during single-cell MATQ-sequencing performed on Bravo automated liquid handling platform
Features and Benefits
- Provided in a convenient 5 × 1.5 mL (1 vial) pack size
- Tested for the absence of DNase, RNase, and protease.
