General description

Fluorescent Transfection Reagent has the cationic lipid 1,2-dioleoyloxypropyl)-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTAP) and the neutral lipid DOPE (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine in the ratio 1:1 w/w along with 0.1 wt% N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)dioleoyl (NBD) DOPE. NBD-DOPE is a fluorescence label. NBD is attached to headgroup of DOPE.

Application

Fluorescent Transfection Reagent has been used to visualize the localization of liposome oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) complex in lung alveolar cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fluorescent Transfection Reagent is useful in understanding fibroplex membrane structure and interaction of fibroin particles with cationic lipids. N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)dioleoyl (NBD) is used in model membranes studies and is useful in visualizing membrane domains, at 460/535 nm (excitation/emission) wavelengths. The DOTAP:DOPE with 0.1% NBD-DOPE liposome (LipNBD) reconstituted with transferrin called the transferrin liposome-nitrobenzoxadiazole (Tf-LipNBD) is useful as a probe. It provides improved image contrast in in vitro magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of tumor cells.

Directly delivering therapeutic proteins into cells has promise as an intervention without side effects for protein deficiencies caused by genetic defects. However, as negatively charged macromolecules, proteins require carriers for achieving cellular uptake and maintaining their activity in the cytoplasm.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
