ECM 399 (BTX)

BTX ECM 399 EXPONENTIAL DECAY WAVE ELECTROPORATION SYSTEM

ECM399

Economical electroporation system for gram negative bacteria and yeast applications

The ECM 399 is an economical electroporation system for gram negative bacteria and yeast applications. Ideal for research and academic labs.

ECM 399 GENERATOR

The ECM 399 is an exponential decay wave electroporaton generator specifically designed to deliver the field strengths and pulse lengths required for the simple transformation of bacteria and yeast cells. In low voltage mode the ECM 399 has a limited capability for transfecting some mammalian cell lines.

The ECM 399 is ideal for basic transformation in research and academic environments.

The ECM 399 is intended For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic, pre-clinical, or clinical procedures.

FEATURES

Highest transformation efficiencies of basic bacteria and yeast strains
Easy to operate
Cost effective
Compact in size and portable
Available as complete system with cuvettes and cuvette rack

Applications

Basic bacteria and yeast transformation
Mammalian transfection (limited, in low voltage mode)
