Request a Sample of Transfection Reagents for Life Science Research
Transient transfection is a technique used in molecular biology to introduce foreign nucleic acids (DNA, RNA) into cells temporarily. While it is a powerful tool, it comes with several challenges:
Addressing these challenges often requires careful optimization of transfection protocols and conditions tailored to the specific cell type and experimental needs.
Our range of best-in-class, ready-to-use transfection reagents for life science research addresses these challenges and more. They allow researchers to study the function of a protein of interest, its role in a signaling pathway, perform genome editing using plasmid-based or RNA-based proven methods, and conduct cost-effective RNA interference to transfect guide RNA and express Cas9 protein in hard-to-transfect cells.

- Efficiency: Achieving high transfection efficiency can be difficult, especially in certain cell types that are hard to transfect.
- Cell Viability: The process can be toxic to cells, leading to reduced cell viability and affecting experimental outcomes.
- Reproducibility: Variability in transfection efficiency and expression levels can lead to inconsistent results, making it challenging to reproduce experiments.
- Optimization: Each cell type may require different transfection reagents, conditions, and protocols, necessitating extensive optimization.
- Delivery Method Limitations: Different delivery methods (e.g., electroporation) have their own limitations and may not be suitable for all cell types or applications.
