Instruction for Use:
In the „Transfection Reagent Selection Guide“ you can find existing references by setting different filters e.g. for your combination of nucleic acid and cell type. Appropriate keywords in the “Search references“ at the top of the page can also yield a result. A reference indicates that the found transfection reagent has been successfully used for the corresponding application. Ideally, tested transfection parameters and transfection efficiencies are specified.
No reference? > General Selection Guide
If the list does not include a reference concerning your cell type, this does not mean that there is no suitable reagent available, but only that there is no report of experiences with this cell type. In this case it is necessary to preselect (General Selection Guide) and test a reagent (Free Sample Offer). If you want to write an application note for us we will make you an Offer for consideration.
