Invitrogen™ SuperScript™ One-Step RT-PCR System with Platinum™ Taq DNA Polymerase

SuperScript One-Step RT-PCR System with Platinum Taq DNA Polymerase is designed for the convenient end-point detection and analysis of RNA molecules by RT-PCR. This system combines RT/Platinum Taq mix and 2X reaction mix. The RT/Platinum Taq mix contains a mixture of SuperScript II Reverse Transcriptase and Platinum Taq DNA Polymerase. The 2X reaction mix consists of a proprietary buffer system optimized for reverse transcription and PCR amplification, Mg²⁺ optimized for universal use, deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates, and stabilizers.

All components for cDNA synthesis and PCR are combined in a single tube with gene-specific primers and target RNA. Reverse transcription automatically follows PCR cycling without additional steps.

Note: For superior one-step RT-PCR performance, we recommend the SuperScript IV One-Step RT-PCR System (Cat. No. 12594025) or SuperScript IV One-Step RT-PCR System with ezDNase (Cat. No. 12595025). The SuperScript IV One-Step RT-PCR System combines the high processivity of SuperScript IV Reverse Transcriptase with the high-fidelity of Platinum SuperFi DNA Polymerase to provide unmatched product yields, specificity, and sensitivity in less time and for a broad target range, even with suboptimally pure RNA samples.
