Scorpions Primers
BHQ® (Black Hole Quencher®)-labeled Scorpions primers for PCR analysis are unlike dual-labeled probes and Molecular Beacons because they combine primer and probe in one molecule, with the primer at the 3' end and the probe contained within a hairpin-loop structure at the 5' end. Scorpions primers utilize a uni-molecular mechanism that acts faster in solution for instantaneous fluorescence in real-time PCR. Similar to Molec…
