Electroporation

Electroporation is a laboratory technique that applies a controlled electrical pulse to a cell suspension, opening transient pores in the membrane so that DNA, RNA, proteins or other molecules can pass into the cell. The equipment listed under this category delivers and controls that pulse: electroporators, cuvette chambers and the associated cell transfection devices used across molecular biology. On Questpair, 100 percent of the listings are used, drawn from 13 suppliers in 7 countries. New, used and refurbished units appear here, with prices spanning EUR 43 to EUR 23.240. Because electroporation is a workhorse of gene delivery and transfection, this class of laboratory instrument turns up in genomics, protein work and primary cell research alike.
