Thermo Scientific™ DH5α Competent Cells; High Efficiency
High efficiency, chemically competent E. coli cells ideal for construction of gene banks or generation of cDNA libraries using plasmid-derived vectors
Invitrogen™ One Shot™ TOP10 Electrocomp™ E. coli
One Shot TOP10 Electrocomp E. coli cells are ideal for high-efficiency cloning and plasmid propagation. Provided at a transformation efficiency of >1 x 1010 cfu/ μg supercoiled DNA, these cells allow for stable replication of high copy number plasmids.
Thermo Scientific™ BL21(DE3) Competent Cells
Suitable for the expression of non-toxic heterologous genes. The strain contains the lambda DE3 prophage that carries the gene for T7 RNA polymerase under control of a lacUV5 promoter, allowing expression of the T7 RNA polymerase to be induced with IPTG.
Invitrogen™ Subcloning Efficiency™ DH5α Competent Cells
Subcloning Efficiency DH5α Competent Cells are a versatile, chemically competent strain for cloning that provides a transformation efficiency of >1 x 106 cfu/μg plasmid DNA.
Thermo Scientific™ DH5α Competent Cells
Chemically competent E. coli cells recommended for routine subcloning into plasmid vectors. Subcloning efficiency cells are not suitable for the generation of cDNA libraries.
Invitrogen™ One Shot™ BL21(DE3) Chemically Competent E. coli
One Shot BL21(DE3) Chemically Competent E. coli cells are ideal for use with bacteriophage T7 promoter-based expression systems such as pRSET and pET.
Invitrogen™ Library Efficiency™ DH5α Competent Cells
Library Efficiency DH5α Competent Cells are a versatile strain of chemically competent cells that are used in many everyday cloning applications.
Invitrogen™ MAX Efficiency™ DH10Bac Competent Cells
Capable of supporting site-specific recombination between pFastBac™ and bMON14272
Invitrogen™ One Shot™ Stbl3™ Chemically Competent E. coli
One Shot Stbl3 Chemically Competent E. coli are designed for cloning direct repeats found in lentiviral expression vectors as these cells reduce the frequency of homologous recombination of direct repeats found in lentiviral vectors (ViraPower Lentiviral Expression kits) and other retroviral vectors (instability-prone HIV-based plasmids).
Invitrogen™ One Shot™ ccdB Survival™ 2 T1R Competent Cells
One Shot ccdB Survival 2 T1R Competent Cells are suitable for the propagation of plasmids containing the ccdB gene and are designed for use with the Gateway Vector Conversion System and for propagating Gateway destination, donor, and supercoiled entry vectors.
Invitrogen™ One Shot™ MAX Efficiency™ DH5α-T1R Competent Cells
One Shot MAX Efficiency DH5α-T1R Competent Cells are derived from the popular DH5α strain and carry the tonA (fhuA) mutation that confers resistance to T1 and T5 phage.
Thermo Scientific™ DH10B Competent Cells; High Efficiency
High efficiency, chemically competent E. coli cells. The DH10B strain is suitable for cloning DNA containing methylcytosine, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, and methyladenine, allowing both prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomic DNA to be cloned efficiently.
Invitrogen™ MAX Efficiency™ DH5α-T1R Competent Cells
MAX Efficiency DH5α T1R Phage-Resistant Competent Cells are high efficiency chemically competent cells for generating cDNA libraries and were developed to confer resistance to the lytic bacteriophages T1 and T5.
Invitrogen™ ElectroMAX™ DH10B Cells
ElectroMAX DH10B Cells are electrocompetent E. coli cells offering the highest transformation efficiencies of >1 x 1010 cfu/μg plasmid DNA.
