Description

Transfection, the introduction of nucleic acid into mammalian cells, is a powerful technique used to study in vivo gene function and regulation. The Cytofect™ Hepatocyte Transfection kit is a plasmid DNA delivery system specifically optimized to deliver DNA into hepatocytes. This kit contains Cytofect-1, Viral Enhancer* and Media for transfection and culturing cells.  Viral Enhancer complexes with DNA and Cytofect-1 and escorts the transfection complex to the nucleus. This results in high transfection efficiency and viability for these traditionally hard-to-transfect primary cells.

The Kit contains all necessary reagents, media and optimized protocols to carry out successful transfection of primary Hepatocytes with high efficiency (40%) and viability (70%-95%).
Products are for research use only. They are not intended for human, animal, or diagnostic applications.  Viral Enhancer (VE) is a replication-deficient, Adenovirus-derived formulation that does not contain replication competent virus. TR1 and VE are manufactured by Targeting Systems.

Designed to improve transfection efficiency and cell viability, Cytofect is a plasmid DNA delivery system containing Cytofect-2, Enhancer and Media for transfecting and culturing cells. The Enhancer is an endosomolytic peptide that complexes with DNA and Cytofect-2, then escorts the transfection complex to the nucleus. The results are high transfection efficiency and viability for traditionally hard-to-transfect cells.
