ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to modification of amplification buffer used in amplification reactions. The modifications result in a significant improvement in results of amplification In particular, the present invention provides methods and buffers for performing an amplification reaction utilizing a buffer comprising nucleotide triphosphates comprising treating the buffer to substitute a portion of the nucleotide triphosphates with nucleotide diphosphates.
