Thermo Fisher CTS Xenon Electroporation Instrument for Scalable Cell Transfection

The Thermo Fisher CTS Xenon Electroporation Instrument is a compact, benchtop electroporation system designed to deliver highly controlled and reproducible electrical pulses for scalable cell processing workflows. Engineered for advanced cell and gene therapy research, this instrument supports the electroporation of primary cells—including T cells and stem cells—with volumes ranging from 1 to 25 mL. It features integrated fluidics powered by a peristaltic pump, enabling precise sample handling and transfer essential for non-viral nucleic acid delivery applications such as DNA, RNA, mRNA, and CRISPR components.

Key technical specifications include:

The system incorporates built-in safety interlocks and diagnostics to ensure secure operation and is engineered for easy maintenance and cleaning. Its robust hardware and integrated fluidics provide consistent delivery of electrical pulses with controlled voltage and current, contributing to high transfection efficiency and reproducibility. The instrument is widely adopted in molecular diagnostics, cell engineering for immunotherapy development (e.g., CAR-T), gene editing workflows, and bioprocessing pipelines targeting translational and clinical applications.

This electroporation instrument is critical for researchers in biotechnology, cell biology, and gene therapy development, offering a reliable platform for non-viral gene delivery and functional modification of cells. Its scalability and precision make it an essential tool for labs focused on synthetic biology, molecular cloning workflows, and biomanufacturing of advanced cell therapies.

Dimensions with the door fully opened are 43.1 × 26.5 × 21.2 inches (109.5 × 67.4 × 53.9 cm) and it weighs approximately 70 kg (154.3 lb). Included accessories consist of a standard power cord. Comprehensive testing by in-house service experts confirms full functionality, with warranty coverage applied. Remote setup and user training sessions are available to support seamless integration into laboratory environments.

The CTS Xenon Electroporation Instrument’s sophisticated electroporation control, combined with integrated fluid handling and safety features, positions it as a highly capable instrument essential for high-efficiency cell transfection and gene editing research, particularly in innovation-driven fields of clinical cell therapy development and biomedical engineering.
