Enzyme properties
  • Smart Taq Red has a special formulation with added inert red dye. This makes it very suitable for standard applications.
  • Strong red color of the enzyme allows user to check the polymerase addition and verify adequate mixing.
  • Reaction products are ready for direct gel loading and the dye serves as marker for electrophoresis progress monitoring. 
  • Purified from an recombinant E.coli strain with cloned gene encoding Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase. 
  • Taq DNA polymerase has 5’-> 3’ DNA synthesis activity.
Quality data
  • Activity and stability tested at 20, 30 and 40 cycles of PCR reactions at 95°C.
  • Tested for the absence of human DNA contamination by PCR with Alu-specific primers.
Unit definition
