Comments: NCTC clone 929 (Connective tissue, mouse) Clone of strain L was derived in March, 1948. Strain L was one of the first cell strains to be established in continuous culture, and clone 929 was the first cloned strain developed. The parent L strain was derived from normal subcutaneous areolar and adipose tissue of a 100-day-old male C3H/An mouse. Clone 929 was established (by the capillary technique for single cell isolation) from the 95th subculture generation of the parent strain.

The Transfection Reagent:

NCTC Clone 929 Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent is a new class of unique chemical formulations specifically formulated and optimized for transfecting NCTC Clone 929 Cells.

Data:
FIG. 1. High throughput test of transfection efficiency (determined as RLU/mg) on NCTC CLONE 929 cells after transfection of luciferase reporter gene by using our 172 proprietary transfection formulas and several most popular commercial transfection reagents. The yellow box showed the results of 4 commercial transfection reagents. The red lines marked our candidate formulas with the highest transfection efficiency for NCTC CLONE 929 cells. This test result was confirmed with repeat experiments. The one that showed the optimal balance of potent & low cytotoxicity among those candidate formulas after flow cytometry analysis on the percentage of 7AAD positive cells was later named as this NCTC CLONE 929 Cell Avalanche Transfection Reagent.
 
FIG. 2. NCTC Clone 929 cells were transfected with GFP vector (pEGFP-N3) by using NCTC Clone 929 Avalanche® Transfection Reagent. The cells were visualized by Nikon Eclipse Fluorescence microscope 24 hours post transfection.
 

For Other Cells:
NCTC Clone 929 Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent can also be used on the following cells with high transfection efficiencies.

Vero Cell
293 Cell
MRC-5 Cell
IMR-90 Cell
COS-7 Cell
BHK-21 Cell

Recommended protocols for these cells will be provided with the reagent. The protocols usually provide satisfactory transfection efficiency with invisible cytotoxicity. However, optimization may be needed for certain type of cells. Optimizations may include: the amount of DNA and this transfection reagent; cell density; transfection reagent/DNA ratio, or incubation time for the mixture of transfection reagent/DNA etc. For best transfection result, we recommend using the respective cell type/cell line specific Avalanche transfection reagents. Those reagents have been optimized on both recipes and protocols, and have been proved to have the best transfection results for the respective cell lines or primary cells. You can easily find the respective Avalanche transfection reagents specific for your cells by using the filters of our product list.
