( ...)Outstanding transfection rates using the Multiporator

Using eukaryotic cells, extremely high transfection rates can be achieved due to a hypoosmolar buffer system and short pulses in the s-range. High reproducibility is ensured by an electronically controlled pulse, independent of sample resistance (patent pending). Experimental data
Two cell lines (mouse fibroblast cells, human T-lymphocytes) were transfected using plasmid-DNA and two different electroporation systems, the new Eppendorf Multiporator (A) and a system of a well-known competitor (B).

Transfections were performed according to the manufacturers protocols. Transfection rates were calculated using FACS analysis.

Transfection rates after 48 h in relation to initial number of cells

	Multiporator (A)	Competitor (B)
Mouse fibroblast cells	54.25% 22.16% n=8	2.03% 1.12% n=8
Human T-lymphocytes	29.92% 9.26% n=10	0.55% 0.6% n=10
