qPCR & SNP Genotyping
LGC Biosearch Technologies offers a variety of probe and primer types for real-time qPCR, including dual-labeled BHQ® probes, BHQplus® probes, Molecular Beacons, and Scorpions® primers.
View the selection of fluorophore-quencher combinations for dual-labeled probes available from LGC Biosearch. We synthesize high quality dual-labeled probes followed by HPLC purification to ensure every order meets purity requirements. Every oligo receives rigorous QC by electrospray mass spectroscopy before releasing for shipment.

The most difficult qPCR applications demand double-quenched probes for optimum performance. BHQnova™ probes have improved quenching efficiency compared to traditional end-labeled probes, while also improving signal release upon amplification. BHQnova is most advantageous in longer probe designs, typically those over 25 bases, to boost the signal-to-noise ratio by overcoming the upper limit on sequence length.

An advanced technology for qPCR and SNP genotyping, the BHQplus® probe is a compact oligo fortified with our signature duplex stabilizing chemistry to elevate the melting temperature and enhance target specificity. BHQplus probes are the optimal choice for marker-assisted selection in the agricultural industry, and to research the polymorphisms that may influence human health.

Molecular Beacons have short complementary sequences that fold into a stem-loop structure. This hairpin conformation positions the fluorophore and quencher very close together in space, for remarkably efficient quenching. LGC Biosearch currently offers Molecular Beacons labeled with either a Black Hole Quencher® or a DABCYL dye. These quenchers are paired with a variety of fluorescent reporters.

Scorpions® primers combine the probe and primer into one oligo to accomplish a uni-molecular signaling mechanism. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the probe during PCR cycling is not required for signal release. View LGC Biosearch’s selection of Scorpions primers.
