NxtScript Reverse Transcriptase, concentrate material number and pack size: Material Number Pack Size 07051166103 custom fill
-
M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase mutant designed for high thermostability and comparable performance to the market leader.
- Reverse transcribe difficult templates.
The high thermostability of NxtScript allows reactions up to +60°C to overcome RNA secondary structures (e.g., in GC-rich templates). - Achieve higher yield.
NxtScript RT lacks RNase H activity. This results in higher cDNA yields. - Stay specific.
Make use of the wide temperature activity range of NxtScript and reverse transcribe at the temperature that is optimal for your RNA target.
- Reverse transcribe difficult templates.
- Use NxtScript RT for synthesis of cDNA from total RNA or mRNA for:
- Two-step RT-PCR applications
- RT-PCR for detection of viral targets
- RT-PCR for detection of mRNA targets, such as cancer biomarkers
- TMA and NASBA nucleic acid amplification methods
- Generation of full-length cDNA libraries
- Rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE)
