We have a new reagent,
<a href="http://www.promega.com/products/reporter-assays-and-transfection/transfection-reagents/high-efficiency-low-toxicity-transfection/">
ViaFect</a>. The webpage provides extensive information including a comparison table to Lipofectamine for quite a few cell lines. The table provides data for each cell line, which includes ratios and amount of DNA used. You can use this data to determine the
optimal parameters for a specific cell line without doing the testing. As for pricing, ViaFect is a little less than FuGENE HD per ml of reagent, and in general, the similar amount is used per reaction. We have additional data with comparisons, if anyone is
interested.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"> </span></p></div></div></div></blockquote><br><blockquote type="cite"><div><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div class="WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><b><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Dee Czarniecki<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:1.0pt;background:white"><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Scientific Instructional Designer<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:1.0pt;background:white"><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Promega Corporation<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:1.0pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#7F7F7F">tel</span><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> 608 274 4330
