UltraScript® Reverse Transcriptase & Kits

UltraScript® Reverse Transcriptase & cDNA Synthesis Kits

UltraScript® Reverse Transcriptase is a robust and thermostable modified MMLV reverse transcriptase engineered to enhance cDNA synthesis speed and yield with accurate transcript representation.

The enzyme allows highly sensitive reverse transcription of total, poly A+, and viral RNA sequences, making it an ideal component of RT-qPCR-based assays. Available as a stand-alone enzyme, or as a ready mix comprising reverse transcriptase, buffer system and, optionally, with an optimised blend of random hexamers with anchored oligo(dT) primers. All product formulations include a premixed potent RNase inhibitor to ensure template RNA integrity and minimise pipeting. This reverse transcriptase provides unbiased, fast, efficient and sensitive cDNA synthesis over a broad range of RNA template concentrations.
