I am performing a qPCR standardization of some MGB probes. I have tried just a few times but I don't want to waste reagents, every time I tried the assay, there is a jagging line.

I am thinking that could be that the Reaction mix is not enough for the amplification or maybe I am doing wrongly the setup of the machine.

Do the MGB probes need an especial or different reaction mix?

These are my conditions:

Real-time PCR System: One step Plus - Applied Biosystems

Probes:

Probe1: [FAM] GGG TTT AAA GGG [MGB] 

Probe2: [CY5] GTC AAA TCA TCA TGC C [MGB] 

Primers:

1F: GTCAGCTCGTGTCGTGA 1R: CCATTGTAGCACGTGTGT 2F: AGCAGCCGCGGTAAT 2R: CTAAGCATTTCACCGCTA

Reaction mix:

Taqman universal master mix (applied biosystems): 12.5 ul

Primers 10uM: 0.5 ul

Probe 10 uM: 0.31 ul

NFW: 6.69ul

Sample DNA (5ng/ul): 5 ul

PCR conditions (As reference article indicated):

Holding stage:

50°C (2 min)

95°C (15 min)

Cycling stage:

95°C (30s)

60°C (1 min)
