What PCR, qPCR, and dPCR Products Does IDT Provide?

IDT (Integrated DNA Technologies) offers a broad portfolio of PCR, qPCR, and dPCR products through its EU website (eu.idtdna.com), covering custom probes, predesigned assays, SNP genotyping systems, and supporting master mixes and reagents. The catalog is organized into four main areas: custom qPCR/dPCR probes, predesigned PCR-based assays, genotyping systems, and master mixes/reagents. If you need a specific probe chemistry, a ready-to-use gene expression assay, or a complete SNP genotyping workflow, IDT likely has a matching product line.

Custom qPCR & dPCR Probes

IDT provides several probe formats for quantitative and digital PCR applications:

• PrimeTime qPCR Probes — standard dual-labeled probes for real-time detection
• PrimeTime qPCR Custom Probe Based Assays — fully customizable probe-based assay design
• Affinity Plus qPCR Probes — enhanced-affinity probe chemistry
• PrimeTime LNA qPCR Probes — Locked Nucleic Acid probes for improved mismatch discrimination and thermal stability
• Molecular Beacons — hairpin-shaped probes for specific target detection
• MGB Eclipse Probes — Minor Groove Binder probes designed for high specificity
• GMP Primers & Probes — manufactured under GMP conditions for regulated applications

These probe options let you choose the chemistry that matches your target's GC content, required specificity, and multiplexing needs.

Predesigned PCR-Based Assays

For researchers who prefer validated, ready-to-order assays rather than designing their own:

• PrimeTime Gene Expression Assays — predesigned qPCR assays for measuring gene expression
• PrimeTime Pathogen Research Panels — flexible target selection for pathogen detection; IDT notes these panels save time and money with reliable results and easy ordering
• PrimeTime Sexual Health Research Panels — targeted panels for sexual health research applications
• Predesigned Gene Expression Assay Tool — an online tool for finding predesigned assays

The PrimeTime Pathogen Research Panels are highlighted as offering flexible target selection with straightforward ordering.

SNP Genotyping Systems

IDT offers two main platforms for SNP genotyping:

Both are listed alongside the predesigned assay tools, giving you options depending on whether you want a full system or ready-made assays.

Master Mixes & Reagents

To complete your PCR workflow, IDT supplies supporting reagents:

• PrimeTime Gene Expression Master Mix — for qPCR gene expression experiments
• PrimeTime One-Step 4X Broad-Range Master Mix — one-step RT-qPCR for a wide range of targets
• PrimeTime One-Step RT-qPCR Master Mix — reverse transcription and qPCR in a single step
• rhAmp Genotyping Master Mix & Reporter Mixes — companion reagents for the rhAmp genotyping system
• RNase H2 Enzyme — for specific enzymatic applications
• Oligo length standards — reference standards for oligo validation

How to Choose

• If you need custom probe-based detection: Start with PrimeTime qPCR Probes or explore LNA, MGB Eclipse, or Molecular Beacons depending on your specificity requirements.
• If you want predesigned gene expression assays: Use the Predesigned Gene Expression Assay Tool or order PrimeTime Gene Expression Assays directly.
• If you're screening pathogens: PrimeTime Pathogen Research Panels offer flexible target selection.
• If you're doing SNP genotyping: Choose between the rhAmp SNP Genotyping System (full system) or PACE SNP Genotyping Assays (predesigned).
• If you need GMP-grade materials: GMP Primers & Probes are available for regulated workflows.

All of these products are accessible through the EU site at eu.idtdna.com. For questions about a specific oligo order or custom project, IDT provides an "Ask a Scientist" support option.
