Fast, high performance five-color multiplexed qPCR

+

Highly reproducible and efficient results for all 5 amplicons across a 5 point dilution series of human genomic DNA were obtained when assayed in penta-plex using a fast cycling protocol. Standard curves were generated using 4-fold dilutions of human genomic DNA (0.39 – 100 ng per reaction) tested in triplicate using the Corbett Rotor-Gene™ 6000 HRM real-time rotary analyzer. Reactions were performed in 20 μl volumes with KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix, human genomic DNA, 200 nM of each primer and 200 nM of each hydrolysis probe (ACTB - FAM™/BHQ®-1, ERBB2 - CAL Fluor® Gold 540/ BHQ®-1, ERBB3 - CAL Fluor® Orange 560/ BHQ®-2, EGFR - CAL Fluor® Red 610/ BHQ®-2, ACTG1 - Quasar® 705/ BHQ®-2) using the following fast cycling protocol: 95 ºC for 3 min followed by 40 cycles of 95 ºC, 15 sec; 60 ºC, 15 sec.

Precise and highly reproducible discrimination

+

Excellent reproducibility and discrimination across samples of low copy number with similar abundance levels was achieved. Reactions were performed in 20 μl volumes with KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix, human genomic DNA (1.5-fold dilutions over a 89 - 450 copies per reaction range), 200 nM of each primer and 200 nM of hApoB100 (FAM/ BHQ®-1) hydrolysis probe using a fast cycling protocol (95 ºC for 3 min followed by 40 cycles of 95 ºC, 3 sec; 60 ºC, 20 sec) on the Corbett Rotor-Gene ™ 6000 HRM real-time rotary analyzer.

Broad linear dynamic range of up to 10 orders of magnitude using a fast cycling protocol

+

Highly reproducible and 100% efficient qPCR was achieved across the 10 log-fold dilution series. Amplification plots were generated using 10-fold dilutions of a synthetic oligonucleotide target (60 – 6 x 106 copies per reaction) tested in triplicate using the Corbett Rotor-Gene ™ 6000 HRM real-time rotary analyzer. Reactions were performed in 20 μl volumes with KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix, synthetic DNA, 200 nM of each primer and 200 nM of hApoB100 (FAM/ BHQ®-1) hydrolysis probe using the following fast cycling protocol: 95 ºC for 3 min followed by 40 cycles of 95ºC, 3 sec; 60 ºC, 30 sec.

High performance with both standard and fast cycling protocols

+

Excellent reproducibility and efficiency was achieved using both cycling protocols. Reactions were performed in 20 μl volumes with KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix, human genomic DNA (10-fold dilutions over a 0.1 - 100 ng per reaction range), 200 nM of each primer and 200 nM of hApoB100 (FAM/ BHQ®-1) hydrolysis probe using either a standard cycling protocol (95 ºC for 10 min followed by 40 cycles of 95ºC, 15 sec; 60 ºC, 60 sec) or a fast cycling protocol (95 ºC for 3 min followed by 40 cycles of 95 ºC, 3 sec; 60 ºC, 20 sec) on the Corbett Rotor-Gene ™ 6000 HRM real-time rotary analyzer.

Excellent benchtop stability

+

KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix offers the flexibility to perform experiments over multiple days. Reactions were left on the bench and in the dark for 0, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours after assembly. Real-time PCR was performed in 20 μl volumes with KAPA PROBE FAST qPCR Master Mix, human genomic DNA (10-fold dilutions over a 0.1 - 100 ng per reaction range), 200 nM of each primer and 200 nM of hApoB100 (FAM/ BHQ®-1) hydrolysis probe using the following fast cycling protocol: 95 ºC for 3 min followed by 40 cycles of 95 ºC, 3 sec; 60 ºC, 30 sec. The data represents the average of 3 replicates for each DNA dilution and time point.
