Description

GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Tranfection Reagent for PC12 cell is pre-optimized for most efficiently transfecting PC12 cells. PC12 is a cell line derived from a pheochromocytoma of the rat adrenal medulla.  PC12 cells stop dividing and terminally differentiate when treated with nerve growth factor.  This makes PC12 cells useful as a model system for neuronal differentiation.

Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection efficiency on PC12 cells. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for 660 transfections in 24 well plates or 330 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
