Guidelines for PCR primer/TaqMan® probe mix
Single and duplex TaqMan® primer/probe sets must be compatible with your
real-time PCR instrument and designed for one-step RT-PCR.
Optimize the concentrations of primers and probe for your experiment. See
Table 1 for recommended starting concentrations.
The reverse transcriptase that is contained in the kit is produced using an E. coli
expression vector. The vector contains a proprietary version of the MMLV pol
gene (GenBank accession no. J02255) expressed from pET-24(+). It is possible
that a minimal amount of the expression vector could be carried over into the
nal master mix formulation. If you are targeting MMLV, a related virus, or any
of the plasmid sequences, we recommend designing primer sequences that are
not contained in the expression vector.
Table 1 Recommended PCR Primer/TaqMan® probe concentrations
Component Final concentration in the
reaction 25X primer/probe mix[1]
Forward PCR primer 400 nM 10 µM
Reverse PCR primer 400 nM 10 µM
TaqMan® probe 120 nM 3 µM
[1] Use 1 µL of PCR primer/TaqMan® probe mix per 25µL RT-PCR reaction.

Troubleshooting
Observation Possible cause Recommended action
No signal from samples that
are expected to be positive
The target sequence has high
GC content or persistent
secondary structure.
Include Detection Enhancer in the RT-PCR
master mix to improve amplification.
Add 1.67 µL of Detection Enhancer per 25-µL
reaction.
Inhibitors are present in the
RNA sample.
Isolate RNA using the appropriate MagMAX
kit. MagMAX kits are typically more effective
than glass fiber filter-based RNA isolation
methods or TRI Reagent.
For samples that contain minimal amounts of
inhibitors, decrease the volume of sample
added to the reaction, then repeat RTPCR.
Dilute the sample 5 or 10fold, then repeat
RTPCR.
There were problems with the
RNA isolation procedure.
For viral RNA isolation, if a carrier RNA was
used, check the concentration of the carrier
RNA to evaluate its recovery.
For user-designed assays, the
assay concentration was
improperly optimized with RT-
PCR Buffer.
Optimize the assay concentration.
The thermal cycler was not
programmed correctly.
Check the thermal protocol on the instrument
to ensure that the appropriate settings are
configured.
The RT-PCR master mix was
not prepared correctly.
Prepare new RTPCR master mix, then repeat
RTPCR.
25X RT-PCR Enzyme Mix was
stored improperly and lost
activity.
Store reagents as directed.
Signal detected in no template
control (NTC)
Contamination occurred during
RT-PCR.
Repeat the qRT-PCR reaction with fresh
reagents and decontaminated pipettes.
Follow “Good laboratory practices for PCR and
RT-PCR“ on page 11.
It is possible that a minimal amount of the
expression vector could be carried over into
the final master mix formulation. If you are
targeting MMLV, a related virus, or any of the
plasmid sequence, we recommend designing
primer sequences that are not contained in the
expression vector.
