Solution for qPCR applications
Takyon® Ultra
Takyon® Ultra is a high-performance 4X Master Mix for probe-based assays, produced and assembled in clean rooms. Building on the proven reliability of the Takyon® range, the Ultra version offers increased sensitivity, robustness and resistance to inhibitors, making it ideal for challenging samples and multiplexed assays. It is available as a One-Step kit for RNA detection and gene expression analysis, or as a qPCR kit for precise DNA target quantification.
A solution for RNA and DNA targets
RNA targets
The Takyon® Ultra One-Step kit contains a unique reverse transcriptase combined to the optimized qPCR Master Mix with increased multiplex capabilities. It has been specifically developed for the sensitive and specific detection of RNA templates such as SARS-CoV-2, influenza and RSV.
DNA targets
Takyon® Ultra qPCR kit ensures precise and consistent amplification in probe-based assays. Its inhibitor-tolerant formulation maintains high efficiency across a wide range of targets and sample types, supporting dependable results in demanding applications.
Advantages of Takyon® Ultra Mixes
Our probe-based Takyon® Ultra Master Mix with a broad dynamic range
enables specific, reproducible and highly sensitive detection of RNA and DNA targets.
Universal
Takyon® Ultra is compatible with all qPCR instruments. The Master Mix can be easily adjusted to the appropriate ROX™ level in a simple initial pipetting step using the included ROX vial.
Optimized
Our Master Mix formulation has been optimized to ensure more specific results even with low copy targets. Our new reagent increases multiplexing capabilities, enabling the co-detection of multiple targets in clinical samples.
Robust
The 4x Master Mix is perfectly suited for robotic platforms. The reagents are stable at 20°C for at least 24h allowing for convenient automated high-throughput assay set-up.
