I’m looking for the plasmid map, particularly the sequence of the pmax-GFP plasmid provided with your nucleofection kits. Could you provide me this information?

...sequence. The copGFP is not suitable for long term expression, in some specific cell types like neurons  it builds aggregates which might be toxic for some cells. The further development of the copGFP is the turbo GFP.Lonza has discontinued...

Do your Clonetics™ Rat and Mouse Astrocytes proliferate?

Yes. The cells do expand in culture.

Are rat and mouse hepatocytes transfected by Nucleofection® still functional?

Yes, transfected mouse hepatocytes show albumin synthesis rates comparable to those of untransfected cells. Moreover the morphology and polarization of rat hepatocytes is not affected by Nucleofection®.

What is the lowest amount of Human Hepatocytes that can be used with the 96-well Shuttle® System or the 4D-Nucleofector® X-Unit?

Human hepatocytes do not like to be cultured and transfected at low densities. Therefore, using less than 100,000 cells per Nucleofection® is not recommended.

Do I need to heat inactivate the FBS contained in the SingleQuots™ Kit?

No, we do not recommend heat inactivating the FBS provided in the SingleQuots™ Kit. Heat inactivating the serum can alter cell performance and denature essential components in the serum.

For hepatocytes, is plating density a concern post Nucleofection®?

Yes, the optimized protocols for the standard Nucleofector® recommend the use of 6 well plates. Plating into a 12-well plate will pose a problem as less cells will attach at high densities.

What is the advantage of using conductive polymer as electrode material for the 4D-Nucleofector® X-Unit and 96-well Unit?

With conductive polymer electrodes the release of metal ions into the cell suspension is avoided. Conductive polymer electrode Nucloecuvette® Vessels are used in the 4D-Nucleofector® X-Unit and 96-well Unit?

Do you recommend positive selection or depletion for the purification of Human monocytes for Nucleofection®?

We only recommend the depletion method. For Example, the RosetteSep™ Isolation Kit for human monocytes [Stem Cell Technologies, Cat. No 15028]. The advantage of depletion is that the monocytes are left untouched by antibodies during the process.

Can I also use the Lucetta® 2 Luminometer for other assays besides the MycoAlert® Mycoplasma Detection Assay?

Yes. In addition to the tailor-made MycoAlert® Mode it also has a "Single Read" mode which is suited for unprocessed luminescence readings, e.g. ATP-based cell proliferation or cytotoxicity assays, or Luciferase reporter gene assays.
