GenJet™ In Vitro DNA Tranfection Reagent for BHK-21 Cells

Description

GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Tranfection Reagent for BHK-21 cell is pre-optimized for transfecting BHK-21 cells. BHK-21 cells is one of the most commonly used cells for vaccine production. When used for this application, usually a cell strain adapted to grow in suspension is used.

Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection efficiency on BHK-21 cells. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for 300 to 600 transfections in 24 well plates or 150 to 300 transfections in 6 well plates.

Summary of Optimal Transfection Conditions:
Confluence on the day of transfection
Cell culture conditions
GenJet™ (µl) : DNA (µg) Ratio
Diluent for DNA and Transfection Reagent
Incubation Time to Form GenJet™/DNA Complex
Presence of Serum/Antibiotics during Transfection
Change Medium After Transfection
