Calcium Phosphate Transfection Kits/Reagents—CalPhos Transfection Kits

Calcium phosphate transfection is one of the most commonly used methods to deliver plasmid DNA into mammalian cells. Due to its highly consistent pH and salt concentration, our CalPhos calcium phosphate transfection kit gives you the consistent transfection efficiency that you cannot always achieve with home brew versions. For this reason CalPhos has remained one of the most popular commercially available calcium phosphate transfection kits for over 15 years.

If you are looking for a different type of transfection reagent, consider the Xfect reagent: it forms biodegradable nanoparticles when combined with plasmid DNA, transporting the DNA into your cells with high efficiency and low toxicity.
