About this item
PromoFectin provides highly effective and reliable delivery of nucleic acids into a variety of cell types, including many hard-to-transfect cell lines and primary cells such as human endothelial cells, fibroblasts and hepatocytes.
- Proprietary non-liposomal, cationic polymer
- Low toxicity
- Ideally suited even for transfection of very sensitive cells
PromoFectin consists of a proprietary non-liposomal, cationic polymer that is stable, water-soluble and free of any animal-derived components. In contrast to many liposome-based transfection reagents, it shows very low toxicity and is therefore ideally suited even for transfection of very sensitive cells. Transfection with PromoFectin typically requires no medium change and it can be used for highly effective delivery of plasmid DNA as well as oligonucleotides and siRNA into adherent and non-adherent cells. PromoFectin allows a very rapid and almost complete release of the nucleic acids into the cytosol. Moreover, it also favors DNA trafficking to the cell nucleus - a property that is particularly useful for transfection of slow-dividing or resting cells.
