KAPA Taq DNA Polymerase is based on the single-subunit, wild-type Taq DNA polymerase of the thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus. In the HotStart formulation, the enzyme is combined with a proprietary antibody that inactivates the enzyme until the first denaturation step. This eliminates spurious amplification products resulting from non-specific priming events during reaction setup and initiation, and increases overall reaction efficiency and sensitivity.
KAPA 2nd Generation Real-Time PCR Reagents
Kapa Biosystems offers a suite of Real-Time or Quantitative qPCR reagents.
KAPA SYBR® FAST qPCR Kits are designed for high performance SYBR® Green I-based real-time PCR. The Master Mixes supplied in these kits contain a novel DNA polymerase, specifically engineered (using molecular evolution) for fast, high efficiency qPCR in the presence of SYBR® Green I. They provide superior sensitivity, linearity and reaction efficiency across a wide range of template types and assays.
Next Generation DNA Sequencing
From Sample Enrichment to Genome Finishing: Kapa Biosystems, exclusively available in the UK from Anachem, offers a range of products to improve your NGS workflow. Using novel enzymes engineered via in vitro molecular evolution they have developed an innovative suite of products for next generation library preparation, amplification and quantification.
KAPA 2nd Generation End Point PCR
Kapa Biosystems 2nd generation reagents contain novel DNA polymerases engineered specifically for your PCR application. These enzymes are fundamentally different than wild-type polymerases at the protein level and contain unique amino acid modifications that confer dramatic improvements to the function and performance of the enzyme.
These products enable you to perform research and obtain results previously never possible.
Direct PCR from Crude Samples
Performing PCR directly from crude samples has previously been limited due to the inhibition of wild-type Taq by cellular debris etc. Kapa second generation enzymes have been evolved to provide high performance PCR in the presence of common inhibitors, thus saving time and eliminating laborious and costly DNA extraction procedures.
Nucleic Acid Purification Kits
Purify any nucleic acid sample with Anachem Keyprep purification kits for DNA and RNA or MP Biomedicals products such as Geneclean.
Cell Lysis
Cell lysis can be achieved through mechanical disruption, liquid homogenization, high frequency sound waves, freeze/thaw cycles and manual grinding. Anachem offers several options for cell lysis including the FastPrep 24 instrument plus lysing chemicals and tissue grinders.
Rainin PureSpeed™ Protein Tips
Simplify, speed up and improve your protein purifications with new Rainin PureSpeed™ Protein Tips. These unique tips, used in combination with Rainin’s E4 XLS electronic pipette, enable repeated, controlled sample passage across a packed resin bed. The resulting higher binding kinetics, more efficient wash step and low volume final elution, produce more concentrated and superior purity proteins compared to conventional methods.
The whole process can be completed in as little as 15 minutes with parallel processing of up to 12 samples at once.
PCR Plastics
Quality plastic consumables are essential for successful PCR. All Anachem PCR plastics are made from the finest virgin polypropylene and guaranteed contamination free. Uniform thin walled tubes and wells ensure rapid and consistent thermal transfer to provide optimal yields. FrameStar™ two-component "binary" plate technology minimizes evaporation enabling assay volume reduction and cost savings. Combined with the rigid polycarbonate frames that prevent warping and facilitate precise robotic handling, these advanced plates maximise PCR performance.
