Thermo Scientific Maxima Hot Start Green PCR Master Mix (2X) is a ready-to-use solution containing Maxima Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase, optimized hot start PCR buffer, Mg2+, and dNTPs. The master mix is supplemented with two tracking dyes and a density reagent that allows for direct loading of PCR products on a gel.

The dyes in the master mix do not interfere with PCR performance and are compatible with downstream applications such as DNA sequencing, ligation and restriction digestion. The master mix retains all features of Maxima Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase. It is capable of amplification of up to 3 kb from genomic DNA.
