Principle

HotStarTaq Plus Master Mix是一种即用型预混液，包含HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase、QIAGEN PCR Buffer、MgCl₂和dNTPs。HotStarTaq Plus DNA Polymerase，具备同HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase一样的卓越表现，激活时间只需5分钟。

HotStarTaq Plus DNA Polymerase是一种经修饰的QIAGEN Taq DNA Polymerase，以非活性形式提供，常温下没有聚合酶活性。避免PCR构建和循环初始阶段低温条件下非特异性引物的延伸和引物二聚体的形成（参见" Highest specificity"和" Higher specificity with different primer-template systems"）。95°C条件下孵育5分钟即可激活HotStarTaq Plus DNA Polymerase，这个步骤可整合入已有的热循环程序中。

QIAGEN PCR Buffer

QIAGEN PCR Buffer通过提高每个PCR扩增退火过程特异性引物的结合比例，确保PCR每个循环特异性扩增（参见" Increased specificity of primer annealing"）。独特的KCl和(NH₄)₂SO₄平衡组合，使得该缓冲液与传统的PCR缓冲液相比在很宽的温度和Mg²⁺浓度范围内都有严格的引物退火条件和高度的特异性，无需进行耗时的优化。

CoralLoad PCR Buffer

HotStarTaq Plus DNA Polymerase同时提供CoralLoad PCR Buffer，CoralLoad PCR Buffer具备QIAGEN PCR Buffer的所有优点，同时可直接将PCR产物上样到琼脂凝胶上，无需加入凝胶上样缓冲液。CoralLoad PCR Buffer具备同样高的PCR特异性，与常规的QIAGEN PCR Buffer一样可减少优化过程。此外，它包含两种指示染料，橙色染料和红色染料，可方便的判断DNA的迁移距离和优化跑胶时间（参见" CoralLoad PCR Buffer"）。该缓冲液提高移液的可见性，并可直接将PCR产物上样至凝胶，提高便利性。

FAQ

HotStart PCR is a technique commonly used to improve the sensitivity and specificity of PCR amplifications. Lack of sensitivity or specificity is most often caused by the amplification of nonspecific priming events, such as primer dimers, that usually occur at the lower temperatures when reactions are set up. Although thermostable DNA-dependent DNA polymerases have optimal activity at higher temperatures, they do also have some activity at lower temperatures when they may amplify these nonspecific priming events. HotStart enzymes are inactive at room temperature, and require heating at nucleic acid melting temperatures in order to be activated. In this way, nonspecific priming events are melted before the enzyme can amplify them. During PCR cycles, the temperature never drops low enough during annealing of gene-specific primers for nonspecific priming events to occur, resulting in amplification exclusively of the target of interest. When using a HotStart DNA polymerase, it is critical that the initial denaturation step in the experiment be of sufficient duration to fully activate the enzyme.

Yes, please follow the Supplementary Protocol 'Polyacrylamide_gel_analysis_of_oligonucleotides' (PCR03).

FAQ ID -961

Not necessarily. In a lot of cases, the uniquely formulated PCR Buffer provided in the HotStarTag Plus DNA Polymerase, HotStar HiFidelity Polymerase, Taq DNA Polymerase, HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase, and QIAGEN Multiplex PCR Kits provides optimal amplification of specific PCR products. The usefulness of Q-Solution needs to be determined empirically for each primer/template setup, by running parallel PCR reactions with and without Q-Solution under the same cycling conditions.

Q-Solution changes the melting behavior of DNA and will often improve a suboptimal PCR caused by templates that have a high degree of secondary structure or high GC-contents. For more details on the effects of Q-Solution on PCR amplification, please see the Q-Solution sections of the HotStarTaq Plus DNA Polymerase, HotStar HiFidelity Polymerase, Taq DNA Polymerase, HotStarTaq DNA Polymerase, and the QIAGEN Multiplex PCR Handbooks.

FAQ ID -380

CoralLoad gel tracking dye contained in Taq, HotStarTaq, TopTaq DNA Polymerase and TopTaq Master Mix Kits separates into 2 fragment-size dependent colors (orange and red) when loaded onto an agarose gel. Sigma Red buffer only has one color which is harder to visualize.
