Transfection reagent for antisense
oligos
Delivers oligonucleotides efficiently into a broad spectrum of cell lines and alleviates two problems commonly associated with lipid-mediated delivery of antisense oligos
Cambridge BioScience has added Cytofectin transfection reagent for antisense oligonucleotides from Gene Therapy Systems to its range of gene delivery products Cytofectin transfection reagent delivers oligonucleotides efficiently into a broad spectrum of cell lines and alleviates the two problems commonly associated with lipid-mediated delivery of antisense oligos - poor transfection efficiency and high levels of cytotoxicity
