Glial-Mag -DNA Transfection Reagent

Glial-Mag is designed to reach optimal transfection efficiency with microglial cell lines and primary cells. Glial-Mag kit is the association of a specific magnetic nanoparticles formulation (Glial-Mag reagent), issued from our Magnetofection™ technology and a booster (Glial-Boost) designed to enhance transfection efficiency.
Magnetofection™ is a highly efficient gene delivery method that exploits magnetic force exerted upon gene vectors associated with magnetic particles to drive the nucleic acids towards and into the target cells. The nucleic acid dose gets concentrated onto the cells within a few minutes and 100% of cells get in contact with a significant vector dose.
Glial-Mag transfection reagent

MAIN BENEFITS:

High level of nucleic acid compaction
Easy and straightforward protocol
Compatible with any culture medium.
Testimonial :
"We are using the BV2 microglia cell line in our lab and have some difficulties when it is about transfecting those cells to overexpressed some proteins. The main issue is the overactivation of the cells even only with the empty vector (pcDNA empty plasmid) observed by qPCR on some genes and also we often observed cell death after transfection. So I have used Glial-Mag on my cells. The transfection worked well (validated by western blot) and I did not observe cell death. I have also analyzed some gene expression levels and the cells do not seem activated too much by the transfection. Glial-Mag is a very good product."Math.
