Phire™ Hot Start DNA Polymerase from Finnzymes – Speed and specificity for routine and high-throughput PCR

11 Mar 2008

Finnzymes has launched a novel hot start DNA polymerase that outperforms every Taq-based hot start polymerase on the market.

Phire Hot Start DNA Polymerase incorporates a DNA-binding domain, a design that results in shorter extension times, improved yields, and 2-fold increased fidelity compared to Taq polymerase. In addition, our unique hot start technology allows complete reactivation of Phire DNA Polymerase in “zero-time” at standard cycling temperatures. Finnzymes’ new hot start polymerase is an ideal solution for routine and high-throughput PCR applications.

Advantages:
Short protocols – Amplify 3 times faster than with hot start Taq
Specific products – Unique hot start technology with zero-time reactivation
High yields – Efficient PCR results in more product

Finnzymes’ Phire™ Hot Start DNA Polymerase is a novel PCR enzyme. The polymerase incorporates a specific DNA-binding domain which shortens extension times, improves yields, and increases fidelity 2-fold compared to Taq polymerase. In addition, it our unique hot start technology allows complete reactivation of Phire DNA Polymerase in “zero-time” at standard cycling temperatures. This combination of features makes this polymerase an ideal solution for routine and high throughput PCR applications. Phire DNA Polymerase delivers superior performance in all thermal cyclers, both conventional and fast instruments such as the Piko™ Thermal Cycler from Finnzymes. Advantages• Quick hot start: No reactivation step• Fast enzyme: Amplify 3 times faster than with hot start Taq• High yields: Abundant products due to high efficiency• Longer PCR products: Amplify significantly longer DNA fragments than with any hot start Taq
