Product Description
Reliable amplification starts with clean building blocks. This high-purity deoxycytidine triphosphate from Zymo Research gives you a dependable cytosine source for assembling custom nucleotide mixes, so you can control the exact composition of each PCR reaction instead of relying on a fixed premix. It suits routine amplification as well as specialized protocols where individual nucleotides must be balanced or substituted.
This listing is for catalog number D1020: dCTP (100 mM), 250 µl. The reagent is supplied as a concentrated 100 mM solution that is diluted and combined with dATP, dGTP and dTTP to the working concentration your protocol requires. It works with ZymoTaq, QuestTaq and other common DNA polymerases. Because it ships on dry ice, it should be moved to frozen storage on arrival and kept cold during reaction setup to preserve its integrity. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your workflow moving.
Key Features
- High purity – Ultra-pure nucleotide helps minimize side reactions and supports consistent amplification.
- Concentrated stock – 100 mM solution allows flexible dilution into custom dNTP blends.
- Polymerase compatible – Works with ZymoTaq, QuestTaq and other standard DNA polymerases.
- Single-nucleotide format – Lets you adjust cytosine levels independently of the other bases.
- Cold-chain shipping – Delivered on dry ice to protect nucleotide stability.
