| Product Name | TaqMan Probe Custom Synthesis Service |
| Catalog No. | PRIPRO-0014 |
| Description | A comprehensive custom TaqMan probe synthesis service for quantitative real-time PCR assay development. This service covers the full workflow from probe sequence design assistance through synthesis, dual-labeling, HPLC purification, and quality control. Users can select from a wide range of 5′ reporter fluorophores (FAM, HEX, TET, JOE, ROX, TAMRA, CY3, CY5, Texas Red, and others) paired with 3′ quenchers (BHQ1, BHQ2, BHQ3, TAMRA, DABCYL). The service includes expert design review to ensure probe Tm, GC content, secondary structure, and specificity meet assay requirements. Each probe undergoes dual-HPLC purification, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and functional validation of quenching efficiency. A detailed certificate of analysis is provided with each batch. This service supports applications from single-gene expression assays to high-order multiplex panels. |
| Intended Use | Designed for researchers developing custom qPCR assays for gene expression quantification, pathogen detection, SNP/mutation genotyping, copy number variation analysis, microRNA quantification, and multiplex diagnostic panel development. |
