Effective Tool for Messenger RNA Amplification

Thermo Fisher Scientific offers life scientists Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers as an effective tool for the enhanced reverse transcription and amplification of messenger RNA (mRNA). Random hexamers are ideal when working with short fragments, such as in QRT-PCR, by increasing the number of binding sites on the RNA, allowing for an increase in reaction sensitivity and yield of cDNA.

Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers are used as primers for mRNA with or without a poly-A tail. These truly random oligo deoxyribonucleotides increase sensitivity and yield of reverse transcription reactions as well as generating a more complete pool of cDNA. Random hexamers consist of six bases in a randomly generated sequence, to allow for annealing on all species of RNA.

Thermo Scientific Random Hexamers are available at a concentration of 400 ng/μl and in aliquots of 40μl and 100μl. They are also available in Thermo Scientific Verso RT and QRT-PCR kits to offer a complete reverse transcription solution.

Thermo Scientific PCR reagents meet high quality standards to generate accurate results from even the most challenging molecular biology applications.
