The LA PCR Kit Ver. 2.1 employs a modification of LA PCR technology described by Dr. Barnes (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91, 2216-2220, 1994). The kit is designed and

optimized for the maximal use of the technology. The kit is composed of TaKaRa LA Taq containing 3' to 5' exonuclease activity, an exclusive LA PCR Buffer II, a dNTP Mixture,

Control DNA and Control Primers. The LA PCR Kit Ver. 2.1 has been improved to

specifically meet the needs of human genomic DNA amplification.
