How much magnesium chloride should I add to my PCR or qPCR reaction?

Further addition of PCR enhancers or MgCl2to the reaction is not recommended, as the buffer’s composition has been optimised to maximise PCR success rates. However, if developing a customised assay, additional MgCl2 should be added in 0.5 mM increments up to a maximum of 5-7 mM and results compared to unmodified reactions.
