Supplied ready to use

AMS Biotechnology’s (AMSBIO) expression-ready lentiviral particles allow easy gene delivery into hard-to-transfect cells including primary cells, non-dividing cells and cells in suspension.

The Abingdon, UK-based firm supplies the new particles ready to use, eliminating the need for any lipids or transfection reagents. The company says these pre-made lentiviral particles are proven to deliver genes in a highly reproducible and controllable manner for the expression of more than 250 human proteins, mouse proteins, enzymes and fluorescent markers.

Using proprietary protocols based on co-expressed red fluorescent protein by a 2A peptide processing (SureTitre) or RSV promoter (Inducible system), these lentiviral particles enable real time monitoring of protein expression.

All AMSBIO lentiviral products are said to be easy and safe to use by simply adding the high titre particles (1 x 107 IFU/ml or higher) to cultured cells, and you will be able to confirm the specific target's expression under a fluorescent microscope after 48–72 hours.

AMSBIO lentiviral particles are packaged in culture medium with 10% FBS, in serum-free medium or concentrated in PBS for in vivo use.
