TRANSFECTION REAGENTS FOR ANIMAL MODELS
Among our host of nucleic acid delivery systems, we created two highly effective transfection reagents for use in animal studies:
In Vivo DNA-Fect and In Vivo RNA-Fect.
In Vivo DNA-Fect is a synthetic amphiphilic polymer that is specifically tailored for plasmid DNA delivery. It has been tested and found effective in different types of primary attachment dependent cells as well as for cell culture use.
In Vivo RNA-Fect is a synthetic amphiphilic polymer that is specifically tailored for siRNA delivery. It has been tested and found effective after administration via systemic routes, such as intravenous and intraperitoneal, as well as local administration.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR OPTIMIZING NON-VIRAL TRANSFECTIONS IN CULTURE
The efficiency of all transfection reagents depends on cell type to be modified, nature of polynucleotide to be delivered, and cell culture conditions. The transfection conditions for each cell type should be optimized to ensure maximal gene expression (or silencing) while minimizing cellular toxicity. We have complied a list of factors that should be considered for optimum transfection, which can be accessed here.
