High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit, 1000 reactions - FAQs

Which kit should I use for the reverse transcription step for TaqMan Pri-miRNA assays (Cat. No. 4427012)?

We recommend the following kits:

• High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Cat. No. 4374966).
• High-Capacity RNA-to-cDNA Kit (Cat. No. 4387406).

What is the concentration of the random primers in the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Cat. no. 4368813)?

The concentration of the "random primers" in the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Cat. No. 4368813) is 25 µM. We recommend that you use these primers at a 1X concentration (2.5 µM) in reverse transcription reactions.
