Multiplex Rt-qpcr master mix for diagnostic development
Efficiently multiplex up to six targets with high sensitivity, even in complex sample matrices, enabling reliable detection and gene expression analysis with robust stability under varied workflow conditions.

Enables High-Throughput Multiplex Pathogen Detection
The TaqPath DuraPlex 1-Step RT-qPCR Master Mix from Applied Biosystems offers a robust solution for pharmaceutical manufacturers and clinical laboratories. Designed for high-throughput, this master mix allows for simultaneous detection of up to six targets, facilitating RNA and DNA pathogen assays across viral, bacterial, and fungal applications. With its 4X concentrated formula, this mix supports efficient multiplexing, crucial for producing diagnostic test kits and gene expression panels.
The master mix provides automation-friendly handling with benchtop stability over an eight-hour workday, integrating seamlessly into existing laboratory workflows. Notably, it maintains performance even in the presence of challenging PCR inhibitors, thanks to its unique formulation. This reliability ensures reproducibility and accuracy, as verified by its functional testing and ISO 13485 certification for consistent lot-to-lot performance.
Optimized for diverse conditions, it withstands up to eight freeze-thaw cycles and remains stable at room temperature for a week post-opening. This adaptability supports varied laboratory environments. Available with or without ROX dye, the master mix offers flexibility in assay development, all while meeting compliance with current good manufacturing practices (cGMP).
