Bio-Rad, 1703362, siLentFect™ Lipid Reagent for RNAi, 5 ml

Use siLentFect Lipid Reagent for the transfection of cultured mammalian cells with short interfering RNA (siRNA). The proprietary mixture of a cationic compound and a co-lipid is designed to provide high-efficiency transfection with reduced cytotoxicity. siLentFect Lipid Reagent has a high affinity for mall siRNA molecules, providing effective silencing of the target gene with low lipid volumes and low siRNA concentrations.

• Transfect siRNA into a broad range of cell lines

• Use only ≤5 nM siRNA for effective knockdown and reduce the risk of off-target effects

• Low lipid reagent levels facilitate efficient knockdown and reduce toxicity

• Transfection at culture densities from 50% to 90%

• Designed to work in media containing serum but can be used in the absence of serum
