Scalable flow electroporation system.
Notice Description
Equipment for transfection of human cells at a scale compatible with large-scale genome engineering applications: up to 20 billion cells per experiment.
Lot Information
Lot 1
Purchase of an instrument to perform transfection of human cells at a scale compatible with large-scale genome engineering applications; up to 20 billion cells per experiment, with flow electroporation technology.
Procurement Information
The MaxCyte ExPERT GTx, the subject of this contract award, is the only instrument on the market that can perform transfection of human cells at a scale compatible with large-scale genome engineering applications, up to 20 billion cells per experiment. It offers high efficiency of electroporation, low cytotoxicity and high flexibility through its unique flow electroporation technology, in which cells are pumped through an integrated electroporation circuit. Competing instruments that lack the flow electroporation capacity are not compatible with large-scale genome engineering applications.
