Calcium phosphate transfection system

Manufactured by Promega
Sourced in United States

The Calcium phosphate transfection system is a laboratory equipment used to introduce genetic material, such as plasmid DNA, into cells. It utilizes the formation of calcium phosphate-DNA co-precipitates to facilitate the uptake of the genetic material by the target cells.

293T cells were maintained in DMEM (Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium) containing 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum) and 1% PSQ (Penicillin-Streptomycin-Glutamine). LR73 cells were maintained in Alpha-MEM (Alpha’s Modified Eagle’s Medium) containing 10% FBS and 1% PSQ. 293T cells were transfected by using calcium phosphate transfection system (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and LR73 cells were transfected by using Lipofectamin 2000 (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol.

VSV-Pseudotyped HIV-1 Virus Production

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
High-titer VSV-pseudotyped recombinant virus stocks were produced in 293T cells by cotransfection of pNL4-3.Luc.R-E- together with the pcDNA3-VSV plasmid encoding the vesicular stomatitis virus G-protein using the calcium phosphate transfection system (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Supernatants containing virus stocks were harvested 48 h post-transfection, centrifuged to remove cell debris, and stored at -80°C until use. Cell-free viral stock was tested using an enzyme-linked immunoassay for antigen HIV-p24 detection (Innotest HIV-1 antigen mAb; Innogenetic, Ghent, Belgium).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
