Thermo Scientific™ Maxima H Minus Double-Stranded cDNA Synthesis Kit
Shop All Thermo Scientific ProductsDescription
Thermo Scientific Maxima H Minus Double-Stranded cDNA Synthesis Kit is a complete system for efficient synthesis of double-stranded cDNA from total RNA or mRNA. First- and second-strand cDNA synthesis reactions are performed in the same tube without the need for intermediate organic extraction or ethanol precipitation steps. This convenient single-tube format speeds up the synthesis procedure and maximizes cDNA recovery. The kit contains premixed components to reduce the number of pipetting steps necessary to complete the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Trace amounts of reagents used in RNA purification protocols may remain in solution and inhibit first-strand synthesis, e.g., SDS, EDTA, guanidine salts, phosphate, pyrophosphate, polyamines, spermidine. To remove trace contaminants, we recommend re-precipitating the RNA with ethanol and washing the pellet with 75% ethanol, or re-purifying the RNA.
RNA purity and integrity are essential for synthesis and quantification of cDNA. Always assess the integrity of RNA prior to cDNA synthesis. Use freshly prepared RNA. Multiple freeze/thaw cycles of the RNA sample and synthesized cDNA is not recommended. Avoid RNase contamination and discard low quality RNA.
It is generally beneficial to minimize RNase H activity when aiming to produce long transcripts for cDNA cloning. RNase H degrades RNA from RNA-DNA duplexes, which can result in truncated cDNA during reverse transcription of long mRNA. We also recommended using RNase H Minus RTs for template-independent addition of C nucleotides. In contrast, reverse transcriptases with intrinsic RNase H activity are often favored in 1-step RT-qPCR applications.
The fidelity of RevertAid and Maxima reverse transcriptases is the same as that of wild-type M-MuLV RT, which is in the range of 1 error per 15,000-27,000 nucleotides synthesized.
All Thermo Scientific reverse transcriptases (RevertAid RT, RevertAid H Minus RT, Maxima RT, and Maxima H Minus RT) possess intrinsic TdT activity, although at varying degrees depending upon the reaction conditions. We recommend specialized SuperScript IV Template Switching RT Master Mix for high efficiency in applications requiring template switching RT.
