TheLavaLAMP™DNAMasterMixisintendedtosimplifydevelopmentandoptimizationofDNALAMP(loop-mediatedisothermalamplification)reactions.LAMPkitsarecommonlyavailableasmulti-componentkitsthatrequireoptimization(e.g.MgSO4,betaine,enzymeaswellastemperature,primerconcentration,etc.).TheLavaLAMP™DNAMasterMixgreatlysimplifiesreactionoptimizationbylimitingoptimizationtotargetspecificcomponents/conditionssuchasLAMPprimerdesign,targetconcentrationandreactiontemperature.Additionally,thismastermixisheatstableat90°Cfor≤5minutes,whichenablestheadditionofareactionpreheatingstepwhichmay,dependingonthetarget,increaseassaysensitivityanddecreasetimetoresults.Needmoreinformation?SeeourFAQs.
