In forward transfection, cells are seeded to appropriate confluence or cell density in wells or dishes, and the lipid-DNA complexes are added the next day. In reverse transfection, the transfection complexes are prepared inside the wells, after which cells and medium are added. Reverse transfection is faster to perform than forward transfection, and is the method of choice for high-throughput transfection. For non-high-throughput transfections, generally forward transfections have better efficiency for most cell types.

Visit the product page for each reagent type and you will see a list of references at the bottom of the page. A table that lists specific cell line references is also accessible. We also recommend www.highwire.org as a search engine to find a large selection of up-to-date research articles using our transfection products. Simply include the name of the transfection reagent and your cell line/application of interest in your search criteria.

Antibiotics can be used in the medium for culturing of cell lines. However, we do not recommend using antibiotics in the transfection medium unless previously tested in the cell type and payload being transfected. This is because presence of antibiotics during transfection may adversely affect transfection efficiency (i.e., positively charged antibiotics binding to the DNA being transfected) and overall health of cells being transfected.
For stable transfection, we recommend waiting wait 24-48 hrs after transfection before adding selected antibiotics.
