Helix-IN™ DNA Transfection Reagent
Top-Seller!
Polyfection-based, powerful broad-spectrum transfection from classic cell lines to difficult-to-transfect cells
Helix-IN™ DNA Transfection Reagent opens up new possibilities for addressing issues of classical transfection technologies. Helix-IN™ is based on Polyfection with a novel patented Cationic Hydroxylated Amphiphilic Multi-block Polymer (CHAMP™ Technology).
The particularity of the CHAMP technology comes from the fact that the bi-functional cationic biopolymer binds and condenses DNA to an unprecedented level what contributes to cytosol delivery, that a pH responsive and cleavable linker improves cellular delivery by favoring endosomal membrane destabilization and that it serves as a DNA shield and nuclear uptake facilitator. Thus, this novel bi-functional co-polymer is biocompatible, ionizable, pH responsive and biodegradable.
- Enhanced transfection efficiency
- Low cellular stress thanks to minimized toxicity
- Higher viability thanks to preserved membrane stability
- High Intracellular Protein Production
- High secreted Protein Production
