Contents Per Kit:
● 
1x1.0 ml of GenJet™ DNA Transfection Reagent
● 1x1.0 ml (x50) of HapiCell™ Transfection Toxicity Removal Cocktail


Description

GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Tranfection Reagent for keratinocytes is pre-optimized for transfecting human or mouse primary or immortalized keratinocytes. Keratinocytes are hard to transfect partly due to the transfection toxicity related cell death. In combination of our proprietary HapiCell™ Toxicity Removal Cocktail, the pre-optimized transfection reagent gave up to 50% efficiency with minimal cell death. 

Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection efficiency on 
keratinocytes
. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for ~600 transfections in 24 well plates or ~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
Treatment with HapiCell™ Toxicity Removal Cocktail
