Phusion™ High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase is a robust and highly accurate enzyme designed for PCR applications requiring exceptional fidelity, speed, and yield. Its error rate is 52 times lower than Taq and 6 times lower than Pfu, making it ideal for cloning, sequencing, mutagenesis, and other precision-demanding applications. Available in colorless and green buffer formats, it offers flexibility for downstream analysis.
Key Features:
- Unparalleled Fidelity:
- 52× higher fidelity than Taq DNA polymerase for applications requiring precision.
- Exceptional Speed:
- Short extension times of 15–30 seconds per kilobase for rapid amplification.
- High Yield and Robust Performance:
- Generates high yields even with minimal enzyme amounts.
- Performs well even in challenging conditions (e.g., GC-rich templates or PCR inhibitors).
- Convenient Formats:
- Colorless Buffer: For standard PCR applications.
- Green Buffer: Includes a loading dye for direct gel electrophoresis.
- Versatile Applications:
- Supports a range of applications from high-fidelity PCR and cloning to long-range PCR (up to 20 kb).
