Geneflow Electroporation Cuvettes
The Geneflow range
of electroporation cuvettes are designed to maximise molecular
electroporation and electrofusion efficiencies for Bacteria, Yeast,
Insect, Plant and Mammalian cells. Each batch of cuvettes has to
undergo vigorous testing at several stages during the manufacturing
process for engineering tolerances, biocompatibility and sterility.
The cuvettes are
compatible with most electroporation systems (please contact
Geneflow tech support for complete listing)
N.B. If using
the BioRad X-Cell Electroporator it is necessary to use the longer
length electrode cuvettes (1mm ref E6-0052, 2mm ref E6-0062)
All batches are
checked to optimise the bio and transfection compatibility with
stringent use of high quality grade polycarbonate and chemicals to
ensure consistent uniform pulse generation and improved gene
transfer
The moulding process
ensures extremely high tolerances so that the electrodes have a
consistent gap and parallel configuration. The electrodes are
cleaned chemically and physically to fully optimise the cuvette for
high transformation efficiencies
The cap has been
designed to improve aseptic handling techniques, while the lip and
positive seal reduces potential aerosol and contamination issues

SIZE RANGE AND
COLOUR CODED
Available in 1mm,
2mm and 4mm gap sizes with individual colour caps
Each cuvette is
guaranteed sterile, packed using gamma irradiation and has a simple
tear wrapper for easy access
The 1mm and 2mm
cuvettes have a tapered V bottom so that reduced sample volumes can
be used while aiding sample pick up and minimising dead volumes
