Examples

  • Since cells are grown and treated under standard tissue culture conditions, treatment protocols such as transfections or drug exposure times can be optimized for each set of samples individually without affecting the assay.

  • Specialized equipment is necessary for electroporation, however, the technique is comparable in expense to lipofection reagents when a large number of transfections are performed.
