AdenoMag utilizes Magnetofection technology to concentrate viral vectors on the target cells. This new technology exploits magnetic force exerted upon viral vectors associated with magnetic particles to drive the virus towards the target cells. In this manner the complete viral dose gets concentrated on the cells within a few minutes so that 100% of cells get in contact with a significant vector dose.

The use of AdenoMag allows a significant improvement of percentage of infected cells and of gene expression compared with standard infection.

Ordering information
100μl of AdenoMag reagent is sufficient for 500-1000 transfections in a 96-well plate. NOTE: As for all Magnetofection reagents, AdenoMag requires an appropriate magnetic field. Two magnetic plates especially designed for Magnetofection are provided to exert this specific magnetic field. The special geometry of one magnetic plate produces a strong magnetic field that is suitable for 96-well plates (cat. # MF10096) and the other one (cat. # MF-10000) is suitable for all culture dishes.
