LiTaq™ Ultra HiFi DNA Polymerase is a next-generation super-fidelity DNA polymerase engineered through directed evolution of LiTaq™ High Fidelity Polymerase. It delivers ultra-high fidelity (error rate 100× lower than conventional Taq polymerase) and fast amplification (5–10 sec/kb). Incorporating advanced hot-start technology and unique stabilizing factors, this high fidelity polymerase significantly enhances amplification specificity, success rate, and product yield across a wide range of templates. The HiFi Taq polymerase produces blunt-ended amplicons, making it ideal for downstream applications such as cloning with the LiClone™ Ultra One Step Cloning Kit (Cat. #: M0011).

From the above results, it can be concluded that LiTaq™ High Fidelity Taq Polymerase is suitable for the amplification of a variety of difficult templates. Under high GC, low template concentration and high inhibitor conditions, LiTaq™ DNA polymerase invariantly performed better than other polymerases. Although direct amplification of lysates is common practice for shorter fragments, amplification of longer fragments is more consistent with LiTaq™ DNA polymerase.
