Details

The AgilePulse™ PLUS Bipolar Transfection System is designed for efficient transfection of mammalian cells and tissues. This system is ideal for high efficiency transfection of mammalian cells, including difficult to transfect cell types, such as stem cells and primary cells. It is also suitable for scale up to large volume electroporation for applications such as large-scale creation of engineered cells and large-scale protein expression.

The AgilePulse PLUS allows the user to incorporate polarity switching into electroporation protocols, thus enabling the user to minimize accumulation of transfectant at a single electrode and maximizing delivery of transfectant. The system is designed to be easy to set-up and to operate in a research environment.

The AgilePulse PLUS Waveform Generator can transfect cells suspended in cuvettes, flatpacks or large volume chambers. Additionally, it can transfect tissues with BTX in vivo electrodes. The system offers the flexibility to be used in combination with BTX specialty electrodes for in vivo and adherent cell electroporation.

Features

  • Program up to 5 groups of pulses with separately defined pulse number, voltage, pulse length, interval, and polarity—within each group.
  • Direct scale-up from standard low-volume cuvettes to large-volume chambers— transfect up to a billion cells in suspension per sample.
  • Incorporate bipolar switching into your electroporation protocols for convenient, more efficient in vivo transfection protocols—pulse chains in each group may be defined as +, -,
    or flip (+ —> - or - —> +) polarity.
  • Maximum number of pulses per protocol increases to 100 pulses.
  • Compatible with all BTX specialty electrodes for adherent cell electroporation, intradermal electroporation, intramuscular electroporation and other in vivo transfection applications.
