The world's only enzyme for RNA LAMP and DNA LAMP

The OmniAmp®  polymerase is the only enzyme capable of Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) from both RNA and DNA samples. The enzyme has a temperature optimum of 72°C, allowing increased specificity and flexibility as compared with Bst Exo Minus or two-step processes. The native reverse transcriptase activity of this enzyme means no longer adding a separate reverse transcriptase for RNA targets.

Flexibility: The enzyme comes with 10X Polymerase Buffer C, Magnesium Chloride, and Betaine. The buffer is designed to allow for a wide range of additive concentrations. Easily optimize your reaction with the instructions provided in the user manual.

DNA LAMP: DNA reliability you need and faster amplification

Fig. 2. Quantitation of LAMP Amplification from DNA Target

Quantitative results of LAMP amplification of E. ictaluri DNA over several orders of magnitude of target concentration. Color key: 1:10 = Red, 1:100 = Blue, 1:1,000 = Brown, 1:10,000 = Green, 1:100,000 = Pink, 1:1,000,000 = Light Blue. 1:10,000,000 dilution (yellow) and NTC's (Black) showed no amplification. The cycler was programmed to read amplification in 30-second intervals (cycles).

Instrument flexibility: DNA LAMP reaction performed using a heat block

Specifications

Absence of Endonuclease or Nicking Activity: Incubation of OmniAmp™ DNA Polymerase with 1 µg of supercoiled pBR322 DNA for 16 hours at 70°C results in no detectable conversion to relaxed or linear forms detectable by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Absence of Exonuclease Activity: Incubation of of OmniAmp DNA Polymerase with 1 µg of HindIII-cut lambda DNA for 16 hours at 70°C resulted in no smearing of bands on agarose gels.

Purity: OmniAmp DNA Polymerase is >99% pure as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Exogenous DNA: There is no detectable DNA contamination.
