CleanAmp™ Primers __________________________________________________________________________
The Next Generation of “Hot Start” PCR

Novel Technology

CleanAmp™ Primers contain thermolabile chemical modifications that allow for primer-based “hot start” activation in PCR. These modifications prevent primer extension at the lower temperatures of PCR set-up and manipulation. A “hot start” thermal activation step removes the modification and generates the corresponding unmodified primer, which supports amplification of the undesired target.

CleanAmp™ Primer Modifications

  • Can be introduced into any primer sequence
  • Improve amplification specificity using any PCR enzyme
  • Minimize primer dimers
  • Reduce mis-priming
  • Can be employed in versatile PCR-based applications

Which CleanAmp™ Primer is right for my application?

CleanAmp™ Primers are available in two forms, which vary in the rate of thermal activation.  CleanAmp™ Turbo II modifications are released more quickly than those for CleanAmp™ Precision II. The two different speeds of primer activation are suited for a number of PCR-based applications.

CleanAmp™ Turbo II Primers CleanAmp™ Precision II Primers
  • Fast cycling (<45 min. total cycling time)
  • Standard cycling (>45 min. total cycling time)
  • Multiplexed PCR
  • Reverse-transcription PCR
  • Improved amplicon yield
  • Improved specificity and limit of detection
  • Reduced mis-priming/primer dimer formation
  • Greatest reduction in mis-priming/primer dimer formation
