Description
GenJet™ DNA In Vitro Tranfection Reagent for Neuro2A is pre-optimized for transfecting Neuro2A cells. Refer to the following optimal transfection conditions for maximal transfection efficiency on Neuro2A cells. GenJet™ reagent, 1.0 ml, is sufficient for 300 to 600 transfections in 24 well plates or 150 to 100 transfections in 6 well plates.
Summary of Optimal Transfection Conditions: Confluence on the day of transfection Cell culture conditions GenJet™ (µl) : DNA (µg) Ratio Diluent for DNA and Transfection Reagent Incubation Time to Form GenJet™/DNA Complex Presence of Serum/Antibiotics during Transfection Change Medium 5 Hours After Transfection Maximal Efficiency Transfection Results: Reporter Gene Plasmid Efficiency (GFP %) | ~90% DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose, 10% FBS 3:1 Serum-free DMEM with 4.5 g/L glucose 15 minutes at RT Yes Yes 48 hours EGFP pEGFP-N3 (CMV promoter) 89% |
Storage Condition
Store at 4 °C. If stored properly, the product is stable for 12 months or longer

A Picture Showing Transfection Efficiency of GenJet™ Reagent on Neuro2A Cells. Neuro2A cells were grown per ATCC recommended culture medium and transfected with pEGFP-N3 by GenJet™ and visualized by a Nikon Eclipse Fluorescence microscope with DIC phase (left panel) and FITC (right panel) imaging 36 hours post transfection
