Which of the following products will usually give the best cloning efficiency in terms of positive clones and number of colonies: Zero Blunt PCR, Zero Blunt PCR-TOPO, or Zero Blunt PCR-TOPO for Sequencing?
Typically 200-300 colonies are obtained for the TOPO kits with 100% inserts (20/20). For the Zero Blunt kit that uses standard ligase, typically 600-1000 colonies are obtained with 95-100% inserts.
