Gene manipulation in cell culture studies requires an efficient transfection reagent for transfecting the target cell. But the transfecting the non-dividing cell or primer cell is challenging for ordinary transfecting reagents. Lipofectamin ltx reagent provides an efficient solution to transfect non dividing or tough cell lines.
