What is TaqMan primer?

What is TaqMan primer?

Applied Biosystems predesigned TaqMan Assays consist of target-specific primers and one or more probes optimized for specific applications, including gene expression, SNP genotyping, miRNA, mutation detection, and copy number variation analysis.

How is TaqMan conducted?

TaqMan-based detection Uses Applied Biosystems™ SYBR™ Green dye (a dsDNA binding dye) to detect PCR product as it accumulates during PCR. Uses a fluorogenic probe specific to target gene to detect target as it accumulates during PCR.

What is TaqMan PCR assay?

TaqMan PCR is a type of real-time PCR and uses a nucleic acid probe complementary to an internal segment of the target DNA. The probe is labeled with two fluorescent moieties. The emission spectrum of one overlaps the excitation spectrum of the other, resulting in “quenching” of the first fluorophore by the second.

Can TaqMan assay be used to detect viral infection?

TaqMan PCR is widely implemented as a detection and quantitation method for viruses isolated from a variety of sample types.

What is human rhinovirus enterovirus PCR?

VIASURE Rhinovirus + Enterovirus Real Time PCR Detection Kit is designed for the specific identification and differentiation of Rhinovirus and/or Enterovirus in respiratory samples from patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection.

Is Influenza an enterovirus?

Symptoms of Enterovirus Infections People often refer to such illnesses as the “summer flu,” although they are not influenza.

What is the TM of TaqMan primer?

1. Tm Criteria: The primer melting temperature (Tm) should be around 58-60 oC, and TaqMan® probe Tm should be 10 oC higher than the Primer Tm. The Tm of both the primers should be equal.

What is TaqMan® real time PCR software?

These software products design specific TaqMan® probes and primers for your real time PCR assays that are free of dimers, repeats and runs and ensure signal fidelity. You can also design TaqMan® for multiplexing up to four sequences, avoiding cross homologies with all probes and primers preventing competition in multiplex reactions.

What are the TaqMan design parameters used by Beacon Designer™&AlleleID®?

TaqMan® design parameters used by Beacon Designer™ & AlleleID®. 1. Tm Criteria: The primer melting temperature (Tm) should be around 58-60 oC, and TaqMan® probe Tm should be 10 oC higher than the Primer Tm. The Tm of both the primers should be equal. 2. Length Criteria: Primers should be 15-30 bases in length.

What are the design rules for qPCR or TaqMan assay?

First the user needs to consult the literature and select suitable design rules for their qPCR or Taqman assay. Design rules may differ depending on the polymerase/buffer system used for the assay. For example, appropriate design rules might be: 1. Primer Tm Criteria: Forward and Reverse Primer Tm should be around 58-60 °C.
