Description

GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Tranfection Reagent for NIH3T3 Cells is pre-optimized for NIH3T3 cell transfection. NIH 3T3 cells come from a cell line established in 1962 by two scientists then at the Department of Pathology in the New York University School of Medicine, George Todaro and Howard Green. The 3T3 cell line has become the standard fibroblast cell line. Todaro and Green originally obtained their 3T3 cells from Swiss mouse embryo tissue.

Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection efficiency on NIH 3T3 cells. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for 300 to 600 transfections in 24 well plates or 50 to 100 transfections in 6 well plates.

Storage Condition
Store at 4 °C. If stored properly, the product is stable for 12 months or longer
