Bio-Rad this week introduced its Precision Melt Supermix for high-resolution-melt-based detection of SNPs and CpG methylation for epigenetic studies.

The new reagents include EvaGreen dye, which is required for detection of class III/IV SNPs, Bio-Rad said. The supermix discriminates all four SNP classes across a broad range of amplicons, allowing the study of any genomic region, regardless of amplicon length and GC content.
