Probes for qPCR Further Optimised

Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) has expanded its ZEN™ double-quencher probe portfolio to offer a new range of quencher/dye combinations. The probes are now available with a choice of five fluorescent dyes, FAM, HEX, TET, MAX or JOE, providing additional experimental flexibility. Part of the PrimeTime® qPCR range, ZEN™ double-quenched probes generate less background while increasing experiment end point signal, significantly boosting qPCR sensitivity and precision when compared to more traditional probes. Data illustrating the power of utilizing the ZEN system can be found by downloading the latest information leaflet from the IDT website.
