PCR and qPCR mixes, reverse transcription, nucleic acid extraction and protein research reagents: the features that set each product apart, one table per family.
Fast Taq-V2 BR1A102 extends at ≥1 kb/10 s and tolerates crude templates; Taq BR1A101 runs at standard speed. Both work in multiplex PCR and probe qPCR. HandyAmp BR1A401 is a 2× fast master mix with loading dye, so products go straight onto a gel.

Reverse Transcriptase BR1D101 is the enzyme alone, for building your own RT-PCR, cDNA library or RACE workflow. Both kits remove gDNA and include a No-RT control: the 1st cDNA Synthesis Kit BR1D201 keeps oligo(dT) and random primers in separate tubes, while the cDNA Synthesis Master Mix BR1D301 is premixed for two-step RT-qPCR.
