Description
Cell to transfect:
Designations: Capan-1
Cell Synonyms: HTB-79, Capan1, human pancreas adenocarcinoma cell
Organism: Homo sapiens (human)
Tissue: pancreas; adenocarcinoma; derived from from metastatic site: liver
Age: 40 years
Gender: male
Ethnicity: caucasian
Morphology: epithelial
Growth properties: adherent
Tumorigenic: yes, in nude mice; forms adenocarcinoma consistent with pancreatic duct carcinoma
AntigenExp: Blood Type A; Rh+; HLA A2, A9, B13, B17
Products: mucin

The cells will slough off of the growth surface if they become too heavy. Capan-1 expresses the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and secrete gastric type mucins
Features of The Transfection Reagent:
- Broad spectrum for the transfection of large plasmid, mRNA, siRNA, and/or other type of nucleic acids, which is best for co-transfection of different type and/or size of nucleic acids.
- Specifically optimized to deliver nucleic acids into Capan-1 cells
- Highest efficiency to ensure experimental success
- Lowest Cellular Toxicity-maintain cell density and reduce experimental biases
- 0.5 ml is able to transfect about 1000 wells of 24-well plate
- Deliver single or multiple plasmids
- Synthesized from 100% animal origin-free components, making it easy to validate the absence of zoonotic diseases, such as BSE or viruses, in research experiments or cells lines
- Compatible with serum
- Suitable for Reverse Transfection
- Reproducible: due to highly controlled chemical synthesis of each of the ingredients, the reagent forms uniformly sized complex particles with nucleic acids. With optimized protocol, our reagent will ensure the reproducible highest transfection results.
Data
FIG. 1. High throughput test of transfection efficiency (determined as RLU/mg) on Capan-1 cells after transfection of luciferase reporter gene by using our 172 proprietary transfection formulas and several most popular commercial transfection reagents. The yellow box showed the results of 4 commercial transfection reagents. The red lines marked our candidate formulas with the highest transfection efficiency for Capan-1 cells. This test result was confirmed with repeat experiments. The one that showed the optimal balance of potent & low cytotoxicity among those candidate formulas after flow cytometry analysis on the percentage of 7AAD positive cells was later named as this Capan-1 Cell Avalanche Transfection Reagent.
For Other Cells
Capan-1 Cell Avalanche® Transfection Reagent (human pancreas adenocarcinoma cell) can also be used on the following cells with high transfection efficiencies.
AR42J Cell
PANC-1 Cell
BxPC-3 Cell
AsPC-1 Cell
293 Cell
293T/17 Cell
SK-OV-3 Cell
U-2 OS cell
Saos-2 Cell
SK-N-SH Cell
Recommended protocols for these cells will be provided with the reagent. The protocols usually provide satisfactory transfection efficiency with invisible cytotoxicity. However, optimization may be needed for certain type of cells. Optimizations may include: the amount of DNA and this transfection reagent; cell density; transfection reagent/DNA ratio, or incubation time for the mixture of transfection reagent/DNA etc. For best transfection result, we recommend using the respective cell type/cell line specific Avalanche transfection reagents. Those reagents have been optimized on both recipes and protocols, and have been proved to have the best transfection results for the respective cell lines or primary cells. You can easily find the respective Avalanche transfection reagents specific for your cells by using the filters of our product list.
