Cell transfection

The Invitrogen Neon Transfection Device is a benchtop tool that enables researchers to better understand the functions of cells, genes and proteins. This device simplifies the delivery of DNA, RNA and proteins into a wide range of mammalian cell types, especially difficult-to-transfect cells, such as many types of primary and stem cells.

By performing transfection, researchers are able to manipulate gene activity and cellular protein levels. For example, by transfecting cells with siRNA, they can selectively decrease levels of RNA expression, allowing them to infer the function of genes and cells. The Neon Transfection Device is especially suitable for gene and siRNA delivery into stem cells, providing a tool for accelerating research related to advances in regenerative medicine.

The Neon Transfection Device is a benchtop tool that features a transfection chamber that minimises cell death, as well as programmable software and minimal reagent requirements that combine to provide researchers the flexibility to work with many different cell types.
