Product Description
Get transformants on the plate with less bench time. These Zymo Research premade TG1 competent cells eliminate the heat-shock routine, so you simply combine DNA and cells and spread them out, with efficiencies exceeding 10^8 transformants per µg pUC19. They save time on routine cloning.
This listing is for catalog number T3017: Mix & Go! Competent Cells - TG1, 10 x 100 µl. These chemically competent E. coli TG1 cells are made by a method that removes heat shock and related handling from the protocol, so transformation takes just a mix and a spread. They are suitable for cloning, subcloning, PCR fragment cloning and library construction. Available as 10 x 100 µl tubes. LIGHT LABS stocks the Zymo Research line, so kits, buffers and refills are always within reach.
