Unit Definition

One unit of TransStart^® FastPfu DNA Polymerase incorporates 10 nmol of deoxyribonucleotide into acid-precipitable material in 30 minutes at 74?.

Quality Control

TransStart^® FastPfu DNA Polymerase has passed the following quality control assays: functional absence of double- and single-strand endonuclease activity; >99% homogeneous measured by SDS-PAGE. Each batch of TransStart^® FastPfu DNA Polymerase has been assayed for amplification efficiency to amplify p53 gene from 10 ng of human genomic DNA.
