Transfection reagent
06 August, 2007 | Supplied by: Life Technologies
Lipofectamine LTX Reagent offers a solution for gene expression as it is a plasmid DNA-specific transfection reagent that can provide the same level of reproducible and efficient gene expression in a wide range of cell lines, including primary and disease-related cells. Lipofectamine LTX Reagent is synthesised from 100% animal origin-free components, making it easy to validate the absence of zoonotic diseases, such as BSE or viruses, in experiments or cell lines. A certificate of origin may be obtained.
Improved mesenchymal stem cell culture
06 July, 2007 | Supplied by: http://www.invitrogen.com
The new MesenPRO RS Medium is a reduced serum (2%) medium specifically formulated to support the growth of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in culture. MesenPRO RS Medium consistently improves MSC expansion compared with conventional serum-supplemented media. Using MesenPRO RS Medium, MSCs can be expanded for multiple passages while maintaining their multi-potential phenotype (ie, differentiation into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages).
