GenomONE - CF EX is a cell fusion kit that comprises Sendai virus envelope (SeV-E, HVJ Envelope, HVJ-E) and special buffers. It can be used with both adhering cells and suspension cells.
The product has been demonstrated to be superior to PEG for hybridoma preparation and other cell fusion procedures. Studies show that use of the kit resulted in more efficient formation of antibody-producing hybridomathan than that of PEG. The efficiency of cell fusion mediated by the product was also increased by the addition of hybridoma supplement to the medium used for incubation after cell fusion.
This product is simple to use and has much lower cytotoxicity than PEG. Fusion of the same or different cell types can be completed in only 30 min.
