Amaxa Comparison
Comparison to Other Solutions


  • High efficiency electroporation of hard to transfect cell lines and primary cells
  • Compatible with all electroporation devices including Lonza-Amaxa®, Bio-Rad® or Harvard BTX®
  • Ideal for plasmid or siRNA electroporation
  • Save money and reduce research costs while maximizing results
Mirus Bio has developed the Ingenio® Electroporation Solution to facilitate efficient and reliable delivery of nucleic acids to eukaryotic cells traditionally resistant to chemical transfection. Ingenio is a broad spectrum solution that supports high efficiency electroporation with minimal toxicity. It replaces standard electroporation solutions including phosphate buffered saline and serum-free media. Ingenio is compatible with multiple instruments and facilitates a wide range of applications requiring nucleic acid delivery to cells. The Ingenio solution is available alone and as part of a complete kit with cuvettes and cell droppers.

Figure 1:Ingenio Solution Provides Comparable Efficiency on amaxa Nucleofector Device
Figure 1. Ingenio® Solution Provides Comparable Efficiency on amaxa Nucleofector® Device. Cells were electroporated in parallel with an EGFP reporter vector and assayed at 24 hours post-electroporation by flow cytometry. Two electroporators were used with different electroporation kits: the Ingenio Electroporation Kit was used in the Gene Pulser Xcell™ Eukaryotic System (Bio-Rad) and the Amaxa Nucleofector II Device (Lonza); the Amaxa Nucleofector Kit V was used in the Amaxa Nucleofector II Device, all according to manufacturer's recommendations.

Figure 2. Efficient Plasmid DNA Delivery Using Ingenio® Solution with Amaxa Nucleofector Device. Ingenio Electroporation Kits were used to transfect indicated cell types using Amaxa® Nucleofector® II Device. Cells were assayed at 24 hours by flow cytometry and reported as percentage of live cell population. See the recommended experimental conditions.
 
Figure 3:Ingenio Outperforms Other Electroporation Solutions
Figure 3. Ingenio® Outperforms Other Electroporation Solutions. Cells were electroporated in parallel with an EGFP reporter vector using either Ingenio Electroporation Solution, PBS or the Gene Pulser® Electroporation Buffer (Bio-Rad) on the Gene Pulser Xcell™ Eukaryotic System. EGFP expressing cells were identified 24 hours post-electroporation by flow cytometry and presented as a percentage of the live cell population. Experiments were performed in triplicate on three separate days and the data averaged.

Figure 4. High Cell Viability with Ingenio®. DNA was electroporated into cells using either Ingenio Electroporation Solution, PBS or Gene Pulser Electroporation Buffer (Bio-Rad) and the Gene Pulser Xcell™ Eukaryotic System. Twenty-four hours post-electroporation, cells were assayed for viablility by propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry analysis. Experiments were performed in triplicate on three separate days and the data averaged.
 
Figure 5:Ingenio Provides High Efficiency Electroporation of Hard to Transfect Cell Lines
Figure 5. Using Standard Electroporators, Ingenio® Provides High Efficiency Electroporation of Hard to Transfect Cell Lines. Cells were electroporated with an EGFP reporter vector using the Ingenio Electroporation Solution and a Gene Pulser Xcell™ Eukaryotic System. EGFP expressing cells were identified 24 hours post-electroporation by flow cytometry and presented as a percentage of the live cell population. Experiments were performed in triplicate on three separate days and the data averaged. See the recommended pulse conditions.
 
Figure 6:Potent siRNA Knockdown of Transiently Expressed Firefly Luciferase Using the Ingenio Electroporation Solution
Figure 6. Potent siRNA Knockdown of Transiently Expressed Firefly Luciferase Using the Ingenio® Electroporation Solution. siRNA and plasmid DNA were co-electroporated with the indicated cell lines with the Ingenio electroporation solution in 0.2 cm cuvettes using either the Gene Pulser® (Bio-Rad) or the Amaxa Nucleofector® II (Lonza). 10µg/ml of plasmid encoding Firefly luciferase was co-electroporated with 250nM of either non-targeting siRNA control (Dharmacon Non-Targeting siRNA #1) or GL3 siRNA into Jurkat E6-1, HeLa and CHO-K1 cells. Twenty-four hours post electroporation, cells were harvested and assayed for luciferase activity. Data from independent experiments performed on different days were averaged then scaled to non-targeting siRNA control and are represented as a percentage of the control.
