highly competitive environment. Our supplier. Probes for (A) B2M, (B) HPRT, (C) GAPDH, and (D) RNase P gene expression assays were
synthesized with FAM, VIC, ABY, and JUN dyes with QSY quencher (green bars and diamonds) and
new master mix composition was
with another commercially available dye combination (blue bars and triangles). All possible gene-dye
developed to provide optimal multiplex combinations were tested. Reactions were prepared with TaqMan Multiplex Master Mix using 900 nM
performance for each target in the of primer, 250 nM of probe, and 10 ng of cDNA. Amplification was performed on the QuantStudio
7 Real-Time PCR System using TaqMan Multiplex Master Mix. Bars represent average standard

Figure 4. Comparison of TaqMan Multiplex Master Mix with another commercially available
master mix. (A) B2M assay, FAM dye; (B) RNase P assay, VIC dye; (C) GAPDH assay, ABY dye; (D)
HPRT assay, JUN dye. All assays used QSY quencher. The graph shows average standard deviation
(bars) and average Ct values (cross and triangle) for 4-plex reactions using a dilution series from
100 ng to 10 pg of cDNA per 10 μL reaction. All amplifications were performed on the ViiA 7 Real-
Time PCR System using the cycling conditions recommended for each master mix. Green represents
TaqMan Multiplex Master Mix, and blue represents 4-plex reactions with another commercially
available master mix.
