Product news
MaxCyte is showcasing the use of the MaxCyte® STX™ Scalable Transfection System for large-scale transient transfection. Transfection of primary cells, stem cells and difficult-to-transfect cell lines and their use in cellular screening assays will be featured.
Additional highlights include innovative applications for antibody and protein production using MaxCyte transient transfection which increase productivity and reduce laboratory reliance on stable cell lines.
The MaxCyte STX system will be on display with details about their latest use of transfected cells in functional, cell-based assays including second messenger regulation, calcium flux and automated electrophysiology assays. Visit Booth A9 to find out more.
