Product news

Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT), the world leader in oligonucleotide synthesis, expands its PrimeTime qPCR portfolio to include new assay scales that enable more affordable gene expression studies. The PrimeTime Mini (100 reactions), Standard (500 reactions) and XL (2500 reactions) Assay scales better reflect customer needs for validation and screening studies.

Stephen Gunstream, IDT’s OEM Business Unit Leader commented, “Our new qPCR scales ensure that all scientists, including those who only require limited reactions, can have access to the most precise quantitative PCR chemistry available.”

The new assays can be ordered through IDT’s RealTime PCR Design Tool. The tool allows for ultimate design flexibility and includes the option to select specific exon spanning sites, as well as review all primer and probe sequences prior to purchase.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.PCR and Thermal CyclingPolymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits and thermal cyclers are used for the in vitro amplification of DNA permitting subsequent analysis and experimental procedures. Explore a range of high-quality polymerase, primers and nucleotides or simplify your workflow with a PCR mastermix. Find reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and cDNA synthesis kits for RNA products and libraries. Quantitatively measure the amplification of DNA with real-time PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) kits and systems, and discover automated PCR setup solutions to increase throughput. Alternative DNA amplification methods also include recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) kits. Find the best PCR kits and thermal cyclers and purification equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.DNA SequencingDNA sequencing, such as sanger sequencing, is a biological technique that determines the precise order of nucleotide bases in a fragment or template of DNA. DNA sequencers and genetic analyzers are based on capillary electrophoresis, where labeled DNA fragments are electrophoretically separated by size as they migrate through a polymer. Find the best DNA sequencing products, including DNA sequencing kits, genomic libraries and genetic identity kits in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.
