Cellaxess®HT cell-based assay and transfection lab

Abstract

The Cellaxess®HT system is a new and revolutionary concept in cell-based assay technology; it is the only system on the market that permits electric-field manipulation of cells and tissue in a high-throughput format. Specifically, the system facilitates the transfer from cooperative cell lines to the use of primary cells in a wide range of screening applications such as RNA interference (RNAi) screening, intracellular target screening and electric-field stimulation assays.
