Description:
SmarTaq DNA Polymerase is complex mixture of a thermostable 94 kDa BioTaq DNA Polymerase purified from E. coli PVG-AI recombinant strain expressing Thermus aquaticus polymerase gene and specific monoclonal antibodies.

SmarTaq is inactive under conditions of amplification reaction preparation. It provides improved specificity when compared to standard DNA polymerases. SmarTaq can eliminate amplification artefacts such as primer-dimer formation and mis-priming.

An advantage of SmarTaq is the absence of additional heating step for polymerase activation. Heat activation of enzyme occurs during the first denaturation step. An active complex of SmarTaq dissociates automatically over +70 °C, allowing activation of DNA polymerase.
