Liposome-based Transfection Reagents Feature Fluorescent Tag to
Aid Oligonucleotide, DNA/RNA, and Protein Delivery Research

Qbiogene has introduced a new line of liposome-based, fluorescently labeled transfection reagents which enable researchers to more easily transfer genetic material into cells. Developed to enhance researchers’ ability to visualize gene delivery and track and assay the amount of DNA uptake, FluoroFectin™ Transfection Reagents are affordable, well characterized, and have been shown to deliver DNA, RNA, oligo-nucleotides, and small peptides into a wide range of cells.

FluoroFectin™ Transfection Reagents are available with four different fluorescent labels. FluoroFectin™ Green is useful for showing the formation of the complex between the DNA and the liposome and its distribution in the cells in the visible light range; FluoroFectin™ Red can be combined with fluorescently labeled DNA for lipid/gene/gene product localization studies; FluoroFectin™ Red pH Sensitive enables researchers to track the entry of the complex into the cell; and FluoroFectin™ UV is ideal for the study of cationic liposomes with nucleic acids. As with all Qbiogene products, these high quality transfection reagents are competitively priced and in stock for immediate shipment.
