The five features of Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase

  1. Extremely low error rates
    At ~280X higher than Taq, Q5 offers unparalleled fidelity for your most important samples.

  2. Robust amplification with minimal optimization
    High specificity and yield are absolute requirements for today's molecular biology techniques.

  3. Superior coverage for a broad range of amplicons, regardless of GC content
    While other DNA polymerases can have difficulty amplifying high-GC or high-AT amplicons, Q5 displays superior performance for a wide range of templates.

Robust Amplification with Q5 (A) and Q5 Hot Start (B) High-Fidelity DNA Polymerases

Amplification of a variety of human genomic amplicons from low to high GC content using either Q5 or Q5 Hot Start High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase. Reactions using Q5 Hot Start were set up at room temperature. All reactions were conducted using 30 cycles of amplification and visualized by microfluidic LabChip® analysis.


  1. Shorter PCR protocols
    Achieve precision without sacrificing speed. Q5's unique design incorporating the SSo7d processivity-enhancing domain enables shorter extension times, as low as 10 seconds per kb. Additionally, aptamer-based hot start requires no initial denaturation step and enables room temperature setup.

  2. Amplify templates up to 20 kb
    With Q5, you can reliably amplify simple templates up to 20 kb. Complex templates up to 10 kb can also be amplified with a high degree of confidence.
