  • Midi-Gel Electrophoresis System

    Wednesday, February 21, 2024
    I use this product to resolve proteins by SDS-PAGE. I typically use 20-well and 26-well gels with this system. I can run up to four gels and it has been doing a fantastic job for over 5 years. It is important to rinse the system with water after usage to prevent corrosion from salts present in the ... read more
  • Sorting Chip for Sony Sorter SH800

    Wednesday, February 21, 2024
    I use Sony Sorter for bulk and single cell sorting of mammalian cells. I typically use this 100 micron chip for most of my cell line sorting purposes. The chip is good for 24 hours and the installation process is easy. read more
  • X-tremeGENE 9 for Mammalian Cell Transfection

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    X-tremeGENE 9 is a well established transfection reagent for mammalian cell lines. I use this reagent at 1:3 (DNA:transfection reagent) for most of my experiments. The transfection efficiency is variable with cell type (~90% efficiency with 293T cells and ~50% efficiency with HeLa cells). The pros ... read more
  • X-tremeGENE HP Transfection Reagent

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    I have been using this product for over a decade for hard-to-transfect cell lines. I typically use this transfection reagent at 1:3 (DNA:reagent). I have noticed that this reagent yields higher transfection efficiency compared to X-tremeGENE 9. I prefer to use this reagent for large size plasmid ... read more
  • siRNA Transfection Reagent

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    I use this product for transfecting siRNA in mammalian cell lines. I typically use it at 1:3 (siRNA:transfection reagent). I have tested it in HeLa and 3T3 cell lines and did not observe any toxicity with fantastic knockdown efficiency. I highly recommend this product for siRNA transfection ... read more
  • Genomic DNA Extraction Reagent

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    I use this reagent for extracting genomic DNA from cell lines. I typically use this reagent at 3-5x volume of cell pellet size. I strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions and it works well. If undiluted genomic DNA needs to be used for PCRs, I recommend the genomic DNA not exceed 1/5th volume... read more
  • Transfection Reagent for 293-F Cell Line

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    I use this reagent for transfecting 293-F (suspension format) cell lines. I use the reagent at 3-4x of DNA amount (µL reagent: µg DNA). This is a great reagent for protein expression in 293-F cells by transient transfection method. I typically get 80-95% transfection efficiency with plasmids read more
  • Transfection Reagent for Insect Cell Expression

    Tuesday, February 06, 2024
    I use this reagent to transfect recombinant bacmid into Sf9 (insect) cells to generate P0 baculovirus. I typically seed 1 million cells per well in a 6-well plate and transfect after 1 h. I use 2 µg bacmid and 6 µl of this transfection reagent for this format and it works well. There is no toxicity ... read more
  • Cell Line Freezing Container

    Tuesday, January 30, 2024
    This is an 18-slot cryovial freezing container. I typically use 2-ml cryovials for freezing my cell lines. I place cryovials in this container (filled with fresh isopropanol) and store it at -80 deg C freezer overnight. I then transfer cryovials to liquid nitrogen freezer. I have been using Mr. ... read more
