Super Simple


All-In-One 5X RT MasterMix with gDNA Removal is a convenient and ready-to-use formulation for first-strand cDNA synthesis with an easy one-step setup that reduces pipetting and sample handling. Simply add your RNA sample with our mastermix and incubate.


Accurate cDNA Synthesis

Genomic DNA contamination is a common problem for accurate RNA detection and this MasterMix solves that problem without affecting reverse transcription and first-strand cDNA synthesis. cDNA synthesis will be simple, reliable, and reproducible.


OneScript® Hot Reverse Transcriptase


Synthesize cDNA from complex RNA templates with abm’s OneScript® Hot Reverse Transcriptase. Engineered for outstanding thermostability, our OneScript® Hot Reverse Transcriptase is ideal for handling secondary structures (e.g. GC-rich templates) as well as long, degraded, or contaminated RNA samples, making it the superior choice for challenging RNA templates.
