TaqMan™ Array, Human IL-4 Pathway, Fast 96-well

We recommend that for standard (20 µL) TaqMan Array Plates, you use either the Universal Master Mix (I or II) or the Gene Expression MasterMix. For fast (10 µL) TaqMan Array Plates, use the Fast Universal Master Mix. The Fast Advanced Master Mix can also be used for either plate type, but we recommend following the protocol in this manual (https://assets.thermofisher.com/TFS-Assets/LSG/manuals/MAN0025706_TaqManFastAdvMM_UG.pdf).

The minimum amount of TaqMan Array plates needed to submit an order is based on the plate type:
• Inventoried TaqMan array plates: 1 plate
• TaqMan Flexible Content panel array plates: 6 plates
• Custom TaqMan array plates: 6 plates
• Specialty TaqMan array plates: 10-20 plates (depends on assay format and configuration). Please contact our Specialty Plates team at Specialty_Plates@thermofisher.com for details.

We recommend using our Plastics Selection Tool to verify which plates are compatible with your instrument model, https://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/pcr/pcr-plastics/plastics-selection-guide.html.

Based on our testing, the 96-well TaqMan Array Plates can be used on the following non-Applied Biosystem real-time PCR instruments:
• Standard (0.2mL) 96-well Plates: Bio-Rad IQ5
• Fast (0.1mL) Plates: Bio-Rad CFX Connect and Bio-Rad CFX96 Touch
