The Accuris PR6000-100 is the 100-reaction entry pack of the SmartDye™ Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit, a cycle sequencing kit based on the Sanger method for DNA sequencing, containing fluorescently labelled dideoxynucleotide terminators, DNA polymerase, and a 5X optimized buffer. It is a direct replacement for the Applied Biosystems™ BigDye™ Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit, requiring no protocol adjustment, mobility-shift files, or recalibration. This 100-reaction pack supports first-use evaluation or low-throughput Sanger sequencing workflows without the production-scale procurement commitment of the larger 1K / 5K / 25K packs.
Accuris's proprietary optimized dye chemistry delivers a high signal-to-noise ratio and extended read lengths, especially in GC-rich regions. Reaction time is as short as 3 minutes, and the chemistry stays effective at minimal volumes (0.15µl dye in a 5µl total reaction). Applications span de novo sequencing, resequencing, and finishing, and it is compatible with PCR products, plasmids, BACs, and fosmids.

Per-reaction economics curve shows steep small-pack premium ($18.75 at 24-rxn, $12.00 at 100-rxn) before stabilizing at production-scale per-rxn cost (~$7.80) at the 1K+ pack tiers, typical sequencing-reagent procurement dynamics where bulk procurement is the cost-optimized choice for production sequencing cores.
Pick the 100-rxn pack when:
Sanger sequencing on capillary sequencers. The workhorse application. PCR product, plasmid, BAC, or fosmid template sequencing on capillary sequencer platforms (specific sequencer compatibility is not stated on the manufacturer page; confirm at order).
Method-development workflows. Protocol-development sequencing where small-batch reagent procurement supports iterative validation.
Educational laboratory sequencing exercises. Molecular-biology coursework introducing Sanger sequencing concepts on a per-class budget.
Low-throughput academic-research labs. Labs running occasional Sanger sequencing for clone verification or low-volume sequencing projects.
Per-reaction workflow consumable. Each Sanger sequencing reaction consumes proportional reagent.
Sequencer-compatibility confirmation. Confirm SmartDye chemistry compatibility with the lab's specific Sanger sequencer (sequencer compatibility is not stated on the manufacturer page; confirm at order).
Storage. Storage conditions are not stated on the manufacturer product page. Confirm at order.
Confirm at quote: sequencer compatibility (not stated on the manufacturer page; confirm at order), workflow throughput sizing (justifies entry-pack vs production-scale pack), and lead time.
Warranty: Per Accuris standard reagent terms. Confirm at quote.
Is the SmartDye Terminator v3.1 kit compatible with my existing BigDye workflow? Yes. The SmartDye™ Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit is a direct replacement for the Applied Biosystems™ BigDye™ Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit and requires no protocol adjustment, mobility-shift files, or recalibration.
What is in the PR6000-100 pack? The 100-reaction pack contains Dye Mix (800µl) and 5X Buffer (1ml). Each kit's chemistry comprises fluorescently labelled dideoxynucleotide terminators, DNA polymerase, and a 5X optimized buffer.
What can I sequence with it? De novo sequencing, resequencing, and finishing, compatible with PCR products, plasmids, BACs, and fosmids. The optimized dye chemistry gives a high signal-to-noise ratio and extended read lengths, especially in GC-rich regions.
Accuris PR6000 SmartDye sequencing reagent family pack-size ladder:
- PR6000-24 (24 reactions ($450, $18.75/rxn) smallest pack)
- PR6000-100 (this product): 100 reactions ($1,200, $12.00/rxn; entry pack)
- PR6000-1K (1,000 reactions ($7,800, $7.80/rxn) production-scale entry)
- PR6000-5K: 5,000 reactions ($39,000, $7.80/rxn)
