Description:
Ultra DNA Polymerase is a genetically optimized DNA polymerase for robust, fast and accurate amplification, even with difficult or GC-rich DNA templates. The polymerase is based on Pfu with a fused DNA binding domain.
The polymerase is tolerant against various inhibitors allowing stable amplification with minimized assay optimization.
The enhanced processivity guarantees highly efficient amplification and makes the enzyme the ideal choice for routine applications in analytical or diagnostic assays, cloning and PCR with long or difficult templates.
With a 2x increased extension rate and a 50x increased fidelity compared to Taq, Ultra DNA Polymerase generates improved product yields at high speed without compromising accuracy.

PCR Reaction Setup
The PCR procedure below shows appropriate volumes for a single 50 μl reaction. For multiple reactions, prepare a master mix of components common to all and then dispense appropriate volumes into each PCR reaction tube prior to adding template DNA and primers.
Thaw, mix, and briefly centrifuge each component before use.
Add the following components to a microcentrifuge tube:

1)The annealing temperature depends on the melting temperature of the primers used.
2)For fragments higher than 7 kbp use 68 °C

For optimal specificity and amplification an individual optimization of the recommended parameters may be necessary for each new template DNA and/or primer pair.
