Ingenio® Cell Droppers (Pack of 50): Precision Sample Recovery
The Ingenio® Cell Droppers are essential accessories designed to simplify the handling of electroporated cells. Specifically engineered to fit the narrow gaps of standard electroporation cuvettes, these sterile transfer droppers ensure the efficient and safe retrieval of valuable samples following gene delivery. Unlike standard laboratory pipettes, which may be too wide or short to reach the bottom of a cuvette, Ingenio® Cell Droppers allow for complete sample aspiration without compromising cell viability.
Handling cells post-electroporation requires care to prevent mechanical shearing, which can further impact cell health after the stress of high-voltage pulses. These flexible plastic droppers are designed to be gentle on delicate primary cells and stem cells, ensuring maximum recovery for downstream applications. Supplied sterile and individually usage-ready, they are an indispensable component of a contamination-free transfection workflow.
Key Benefits:
- Optimised Design: Fits all standard cuvettes. The narrow tip is perfectly sized to reach the bottom of both 0.2 cm and 0.4 cm gap cuvettes, ensuring maximum sample recovery.
- Gentle Sample Handling: Protects cell viability. Designed to minimise mechanical shearing forces during transfer, protecting sensitive cells immediately after electroporation shock.
- Sterile Convenience: Ready to use. Supplied sterile to maintain an aseptic workflow and reduce the risk of culture contamination.
- Universal Application: Versatile compatibility. Suitable for use with any standard electroporation system accessories, including those for Amaxa®, Bio-Rad®, and BTX® instruments.
Technical Insights
Ingenio® Cell Droppers are routinely supplied within complete Ingenio® Electroporation Kits but are available here as a standalone pack to replenish stock. They are the recommended tool for transferring cells from the cuvette to the culture vessel to ensure consistent experimental handling.
