Advantage HD Polymerase Mix
The Advantage HD Polymerase Mix provides maximum fidelity and extended PCR product length, making it particularly useful for applications that require high accuracy, such as cDNA cloning, site-directed mutagenesis, and mutation genotyping (i.e., SNP analysis).
The Advantage HD Polymerase Mix consists of a novel DNA polymerase with a hot-start antibody, and comes with a tube of 5X buffer (with Mg2+).

The Advantage HD Polymerase Mix consists of a novel DNA polymerase with a hot-start antibody, and comes with a tube of 5X buffer (with Mg2+).
Advantage HD Polymerase Mix provides outstanding accuracy due to the presence of 3' → 5' exonuclease activity that results in an extremely low error rate. It also performs extremely well on GC-rich and other more complex templates. The Advantage HD Polymerase Mix amplifies targets of up to 8.5 kb from human genomic DNA, 10 kb from E. coli genomic DNA, and 22 kb from lambda DNA. The amplification efficiency of Advantage HD Polymerase Mix is greater than that of wild-type Taq polymerase.
Overview
- Extremely low error rate—exonuclease proofreading yields just 12 errors per 250,000 bp, and performs well on GC-rich templates.
- Integrated hot-start antibody for enhanced specificity—prevents false initiation during reaction setup and minimizes primer-dimer formation, thus reducing background.
- High priming efficiency—shortens reaction time and produces results fast.
- Direct cloning—PCR products can be directly cloned into blunt-end vectors. If primers having sufficient vector sequence homology are used, then products can be cloned directly using our In-Fusion Cloning technology.

Applications
- In-Fusion Cloning for directional, seamless cloning of any PCR fragment or multiple fragments to general page
- Blunt-end cloning
- cDNA cloning
- Site-directed mutagenesis
- Mutation genotyping (SNP analysis)
PCR products
All of the PCR products obtained using Advantage HD Polymerase Mix will possess blunt ends due to the 3' → 5' exonuclease activity of the enzyme. Consequently, the PCR products can be directly cloned into blunt-end vectors. If primers having sufficient vector sequence homology are used, then products can be cloned directly using In-Fusion technology.
