Designed to provide the fastest, single-step transformation process available, the protocol takes just under 60 seconds from addition of the DNA to plating
The Ecos range of competent cells, available form Genetix , is designed to provide the fastest, single-step transformation process available.
The simple protocol takes just under 60 seconds from addition of the DNA to plating.
This compares with more than 60 minutes using traditional techniques.
Previously, shortening a protocol has resulted in loss of efficiency.
In contrast, the Ecos range always maintains its stated efficiency levels, says the company.
Presented in a choice of formats to suit differing throughput levels the range includes single tubes and 12x8 tube strips, as well as supporting full automation on most popular robotic systems via hard shell 96-well PCR plates.
