Thermo Fisher Scientific offers the Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers for the enhanced reverse transcription and amplification of messenger RNA (mRNA).
Random hexamers are ideal when working with short fragments, such as in QRT-PCR, by increasing the number of binding sites on the RNA, allowing for an increase in reaction sensitivity and yield of cDNA.
Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers are used as primers for mRNA with or without a poly-A tail.
These random oligo deoxyribonucleotides increase sensitivity and yield of reverse transcription reactions as well as generating a more complete pool of cDNA.
Random hexamers consist of six bases in a randomly generated sequence to allow for annealing on all species of RNA.
Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers are available at a concentration of 400ng/ml and in aliquots of 40ml and 100ml.
They are also available in Thermo Scientific Verso RT and QRT-PCR kits to offer a complete reverse transcription solution.
Thermo Scientific said its PCR reagents meet high standards to generate accurate results from even the most challenging molecular biology applications.
