摘要:
Described herein are stabilized polymerase compositions comprising a polymerase and an polymerase stabilizing agent, such as a non-detergent zwitterionic stabilizer or a cationic ester disclosed, for use in nucleic acid amplification or nucleic acid sequencing. Compositions are provided for the stabilization of one or more polymerases in a single stabilized liquid formulation. Also disclosed are methods for making and using stabilized polymerase compositions and kits for nucleic acid amplification and sequencing comprising the stabilized polymerase compositions provided.
摘要:
Compositions and methods are disclosed for substantially liquid, gel, suspension, slurry, semisolid and/or colloid storage of biological samples following admixture with the herein disclosed storage composition, permitting substantial recovery of biological activity following storage without refrigeration. In certain embodiments, unfractionated saliva samples may be stored without refrigeration for weeks, months or years in a form that permits recovery of intact DNA following the storage period.
