Description
GenJet™ DNA In Vitro
Transfection Reagent for HuH-7 Cells is pre-optimized
for human HuH-7 cell transfection.
HuH-7, derived from human cancer liver, is
very hard to transfect.
With our pripariotary peptide
conjugation technology, this reagent was formulated to transfect HuH-7 cells
with up to 70% efficiency (GFP positive cells).
Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection
efficiency on HuH-7 cells. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for 300 to
600 transfections in 24 well plates or 150 to 300 transfections in 6 well plates.

A Picture Showing Transfection Efficiency of GenJet™ Reagent on HuH-7 Cells
GenJet™ reagent is optimized for
HuH-7 cells with
exceptional efficiency in comparison of Lipofectamine 2000 (L2K) and Fugene HD.
HuH-7 cells
were grown per ATCC recommended culture medium and transfected with pEGFP-N3 by
GenJet™. The efficiency was checked 48 hours post transfection
Right Panel: Comparison of transfection efficiency of GenJet with Lipofecatmine 2000 (L2K), and Fugene
HD on HuH-7 cells. GFP DNA (pEGFP-N3) was introduced to HuH-7 cells with different transfection reagents per manufacturer's protocols. GFP positive cell (%)
and fluorescence intensity were detected by passing through FACS 48 hours post transfection
Left Panel: presence of serum and antibiotics enhances GenJet
efficiency on HuH-7 cells. HuH-7 cell (grown on collagen treated dishes)
was transfected with three different conditions-------serum and antibiotics
free, presence of 10% serum and antibiotics followed by removal 5 hours post transfection and presence of 10% serum and antibiotics without removal 5 hours
post transfection.
GenJet™ reagent is optimized for
HuH-7 cells.
HuH-7 cells
were grown per ATCC recommended culture medium on a collagen type I treated
culture dish and transfected with GFP cDNA (pEGFP-N3) by GenJet™. The efficiency was checked
24 hours post transfection
by Nikon Elipse 2000 confocal microscopy
