  • PCR begins directly with cycles (no activation step): 35 cycles: 10 sec at 95°C 10 sec at 60 0 C
  • HotGoldStar Taq polymerase requires an activation step at 95°C before PCR cycling. Without this activation step, there are not amplification of specific genes with HotGoldSar. We observe an amplification of the specific genes with the non-modified TAQ polymerase and with TAQ-cyclodextrin preparation even if the initial heating step is removed. The addition of cyclodextrin to TAQ polymerase, improves the efficiency and sensitivity of the PCR reaction, the specific fragment is amplified and there is much less primer-dimers that them obtained without cyclodextrin.
