Universal PCR mix for allele-specific assays. Delivers precise fluorescence, high performance, and consistent genotyping across reaction volumes.
Next-generation allele-specific PCR mix with enhanced signal clarity and robust performance, even from crude DNA samples.
Detect up to four targets in one PCR reaction. Save time, reduce consumables, and maximise throughput with effortless multiplexing.
Our patented genotyping chemistry, PACE, is the latest in allele-specific chemistry. It provides consistent performance making it ideal for high-throughput genotyping applications. Its robust chemistry is especially well-suited for high-throughput PCR workflows, where reliable allele discrimination is essential at scale. PACE genotyping master mixes are designed for use with PACE Genotyping Assays and are also compatible with pre-existing KASP⢠and Amplifluor® assays.
Unlike probe-based products such as TaqManā¢, PACE assays only require un-labelled primer oligos to make up the PACE genotyping reaction, in combination with PACE Genotyping Master Mix. Watch our quick video explaining how PACE genotyping works.
All our master mixes are supplied at 2x concentration for convenience and contain ROX normalising dye at either high (500 nM working concentration), low (25 nM working concentration), standard ROX level (150 nM working concentration) or without ROX.
Boost Your Genotyping Workflows with PACEĀ® Multiplex!
Looking to double your data output while cutting down on DNA, consumables, and labour?
PACEĀ® Multiplex Master Mix makes it possibleāno optimisation required!
Customers can use our free PACE assay design service to design allele-specific assays for use with our PACE Genotyping Master Mixes. We have extensive knowledge and experience in assay design, especially when it comes to allele-specific PCR. We also offer an additional full- or partial in-house assay validation service.
Our in-house scientific team design assays to your target sequences and then provide you with the optimised primer designs and sequences free of charge, allowing you to order from your chosen oligo manufacturer. We are not an oligo manufacturer, so prefer to concentrate on what weāre good at and let the experts manufacture the oligos.
From experience, we highly recommend IDT for oligo / assay synthesis. We have collaborated with IDT for many years and have always found their products to be of the highest quality, and are therefore our oligo / assay manufacturer of choice.
During assay optimisation, certain SNP or Indel targets may benefit from a touchdown PCR protocol to enhance specificity and yield. Our technical team can provide guidance on when and how to apply this approach for optimal PACEĀ® performance.
To take advantage of our free PACE assay design service, you must have purchased PACE Genotyping Master Mix within the last 24 months.
PACEĀ® PCR technology is ideal for high-throughput SNP genotyping across a wide range of species and research areas.
Our allele-specific PCR chemistry enables precise discrimination of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and small insertions or deletions, delivering robust results even from crude DNA extracts.
Whether youāre validating marker-trait associations, supporting crop and livestock breeding, or conducting population genetics research, PACE reagents simplify genotyping SNPs with accuracy, scalability, and cost-efficiency.
