Molecular biologists in government labs, academia and industry who practice the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with customized primers for detecting DNA can now use DuPont™ PCR Reagent Kits to simplify the process.

The PCR tablets in each kit deliver high-quality, standardized PCR reagents in a convenient, tableted format that provides standardization, long shelf life and stability. Users simply hydrate the tablets with their own primers and template DNA from biological samples such as bacteria, viruses and more.

'These kits provide research and industry with maximum convenience and flexibility ,' said Amy Smith, regulatory specialist - DuPont Nutrition & Health. 'Customers can use the DuPont™ PCR Reagent Kits with any open PCR system and their detection method of choice for consistently reliable, reproducible reactions.'
