AAT Bioquest's TransfectamineTM 5000 is a high-performance, lipid-based transfection reagent. Achieve higher transfection rates in standard mammalian cell lines than with Lipofectamine - at less than half the price.
Transfectamine - improve your lipofections!
Transfectamine™ 5000 Transfection Reagent is a powerful and versatile transfection reagent for the introduction of nucleic acids into eukaryotic cells, or more specifically, into animal cells. It can effectively transfect a variety of payloads into a variety of adherent and suspension cell lines. It can be used for plasmid DNA transfection as well as siRNA- and shRNA-based gene knockdown experiments and gene expression studies.
It offers consistently high transfection efficiency in a wide variety of adherent and suspension cell lines, including difficult-to-transfect cells.
The low toxicity of Transfectamine™ 5000 also allowed higher viability of transfected cells. Thus, Transfectamine™ 5000 is easier to use compared to most other transfection reagents and does not require special medium.
