SyBR green home mix (Duncan Clark)

We use our own QPCR MM that includes the SyBR green from Molecular
probes. This home made mix is much cheaper than premade mixes from
most companies. the reference for the mix is below the recipe. Of
course, you still have to get the Hot start taq (we use Qiagens).

Hi,

I'm interested in seeing whether anyone has tried the SyBr green home mix in this post. We've being using IQ SYBR GRN SUPERMIX from Bio-Rad and it's pricy. Also, in the recipe the concentration of SyBR Green is 100x, I wonder what does this mean? Can you buy SYBR Green I from Molecular Probes that says 100x in concentration?

Thanks,
