Bio-rad gene pulser ii w/ capacitance extender plus
Bio-Rad Gene Pulser II w/ Capacitance Extender Plus
Used but in excellent condition. Included in this sale are the Gene Pulser II unit and the Capacitance Extender Plus unit. Missing the Shocking Chamber so you will need to obtain one of these.
Electroporation is a powerful, highly efficient technique for introducing nucleic acids, proteins, and other molecules into a wide variety of cells. A high-intensity electric field transiently permeabilizes the membrane, enabling uptake of exogenous molecules from the surrounding medium. This technique has been used to introduce nucleotides, RNA, proteins, carbohydrates, dyes, and virus particles into prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Electroporation provides a valuable and effective alternative to other physical and chemical methods of transfection
The Gene Pulser II is a modular electroporation system, which includes a main unit, two accessory modules (the Capacitance Extender Plus module and the Pulse Controller Plus module), and the Shocking Cuvette Chamber. The Capacitance Extender Plus module is recommended for use with the Gene Pulser II main unit for electroporation of most eukaryotic cells, including mammalian cells and plant protoplasts. The Pulse Controller Plus module is recommended for electroporation of bacteria and fungi, as well as other applications where high-voltage pulses are applied to samples of small volume and high resistance.
* Electroporates all cell types, prokaryotic and eukaryotic
* Modular design enables a choice of systems
* User-friendly digital interface has easy, intuitive programming - controls all parameters, including those from accessory modules
