ChemStart™ DNA Polymerase
ChemStart™ DNA Polymerase is a chemically modified form of Taq DNA Polymerase which requires a heat-activation step prior to PCR. Upon thermal activation, a polymerase modifier is permanently released, providing for rapid enzyme activation. The resulting hot start PCR enzyme delivers unparalleled sensitivity, yield and specificity compared with conventional DNA polymerase technology.

ChemStart™ DNA Polymerase is a high-performance chemically-mediated hot start preparation which specifically circumvents the need for Taqmonoclonal antibodies and therefore reduces the possibility of biological contamination. In addition, a proprietary enzyme purification process removes bacterial DNA sequences, making ChemStartTM an ideal choice for microbial screening, pathogen detection and other
assays in which the reduction of false positives is essential.
