Do limiting primer concentrations need to be determined when using QuantiFast Multiplex PCR Kits?

QuantiFast Multiplex PCR Kits enable fast and reliable quantification of up to 4 cDNA or gDNA targets in a single tube by multiplex, real-time PCR or two-step RT-PCR. Q-bond technology and an optimized master mix promote fast multiplex real-time PCR, not only on fast cyclers with short ramping times, but also on standard cyclers. The combination of a hot start and a unique PCR buffer system in the ready-to-use master mix ensures highly sensitive qPCR on any real-time cycler without the need for optimization. Two kit formats are available: the QuantiFast Multiplex PCR Kit for cyclers that require ROX dye for fluorescence normalization, and the QuantiFast Multiplex PCR +R Kit for all other cyclers. For convenience, the master mix can be stored at 2–8°C. IMPORTANT NOTE: As announced earlier, the production of the QuantiFast kits has been discontinued since mid-2021. Hence, these products will be available only until stocks last. Visit the product page of the successor kit to view improved features or to request a trial kit.
