Could anybody suggest how to make MEFs transiently transfected by PEI method?

09 September 2013 1 10K Report

For MEF cells, I will recommend either a lipofection reagent such as DreamFect or a Magnetofection based reagent such as NeuroMag or PolyMag Neo which are magnetic nanoparticles reagents. if you want publications showing that these reagent works well on MEF let me know: [email protected]

here are few recent papers
