Overview

FectoPRO® Transfection reagent is specifically designed for enhanced Transient Gene Expression (TGE) in suspension CHO and HEK-293 cells in various serum-free media, using low DNA amount (< 1 µg/ml of cell culture).

FectoPRO®-mediated transfection process is easily scalable from a few ml to several liters of cell culture, ensuring robust reproducible protein production. Increased productivity and low DNA amount requirement make FectoPRO® a cost-effective solution for bioproduction processes.

Capabilities

Amazing protein and antibody production yields

FectoPRO® gives superior transfection efficiency leading to higher protein production yields in both suspension CHO and HEK-293 cells compared to other transfection reagents such as linear PEI

 

FectoPRO® is cost-effective

On top of the production yields improvement, FectoPRO® saves 40 to 60% on DNA cost by using 0.4 to 0.6 µg DNA / 10^6 cells / ml of cell culture; hence making this kit an affordable and economical solution for Bioproduction processes.

 

FectoPRO® is easily scalable

Thanks to its robust protocol easily adapted to various culture vessels, FectoPRO®-mediated transfection can be scaled linearly from 30 ml up to liters of cell culture without protocol adaptation making it a perfect solution to streamline your bioproduction process.

 

FectoPRO® is compatible with various commercially available expression systems using either HEK293 or CHO cells.

When used together with the FectoCHO® CD medium, FectoPRO® gives outstanding protein yields in combination with various CHO cell lines.

Cupo et al, 2019
"The solution we identified was to eliminate the need for the ExpiCHO-S cell Enhancer component by using instead a different transfection medium culture system, FectoPRO® with Booster, with the ExpiCHO-S cells. We also note that the FectoPRO® with Booster system is ~40% cheaper than its ExpiFectamine CHO with Feed and Enhancer counterpart. This methodology change would therefore also provide cost savings." doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0215106.

"In our hands, FectoPRO® gives the highest protein production yields we ever reached using transient transfection. Our company offers custom services including protein production in mammalian cells. Being able to produce a lot more protein without revisiting our expression system opens a whole new range of possibilities for our antibody and protein production services."

“I have to admit I had low expectations for FectoPRO®. Perhaps a modest improvement in transfection … an extra 5-10%. J. did her first experiment yesterday and analyzed it today and the result was remarkable. I’m shocked by both the efficiency of transfection and the brightness of the GFP.”

“FectoPRO® yields transient expression titers in HEK, matching or exceeding those from other suppliers, but at a fraction of the price.”

“2 x the yield for half the amount of transfection reagent = 4 x less cost. It is also very easy to use.”
