AmplifyRP® Discovery Kits

AmplifyRP Discovery Kits provide all the reagents necessary to amplify DNA at a single operating temperature (39°C) lyophilized into individual reaction pellets. The end-user can design their own primers and probes for a specific target, mix them with our amplification reagents, and get results (generally in less than 30 minutes). RNA amplification is also possible with the addition of reverse transcriptase.

Simple testing process:

• Make a Master Mix using a supplied rehydration buffer and the primers & probe that you design
• Rehydrate the reaction pellets included in the kit using the Master Mix
• Heat the reaction at 39°C for 15 to 30 minutes. This step may be done using a portable heat block for end-point detection (Acceler8) OR using a portable fluorometer which will also display results in real-time (XRT)
• Get results!
