Ultrapure PCR Nucleotides
Minute impurities in dNTPs can hinder the performance of your polymerases. Many of these impurities are by-products of the chemical synthesis of dNTPs. Ultrapure dNTPs from Jena Bioscience are manufactured enzymatically, ensuring the highest performance on the market today. Individual dNTP solutions give you the flexibility to configure your PCR how you want. Our dNTP premixes are quick and easy to use with equimolar concentrations of the dNTPs.
