Polaris® Glycerol-free HS TaqY Polymerase 28 U/µL, IVD, is a validated Class A IVD reagent, intended for professional use in the real-time PCR detection of viral, bacterial and fungal nucleic acids. This enzyme is uniquely formulated to be compatible with lyophilization, facilitating its inclusion in diagnostic kits that require freeze-drying for enhanced stability and ease of transport. The enzyme is equipped with an anti-Taq antibody that inhibits polymerase activity at ambient temperatures. This feature ensures that the enzyme remains inactive during the setup and initial stages of the PCR, thereby reducing non-specific amplification and improving the yield and specificity of the desired product.
