Hello
I am looking for some appropriate Taq pols for my ARMS PCR reaction.
Should those enzymes have the 3' to 5' exo activity?
Thanks in advance
Hi! You don't need polymerase proofreading activity - it will cut the mismatched nucleotide at the primer 3′ end and start polymerization.
I have been using paraffin, but the deposited ZnO still detach from electrode. What is the best binder to modify graphite paste electrode with ZnO nanoparticles?
