Home > Products > TransPass HeLa: Transfection Protocol TransPass HeLa: Transfection Protocol Overview The amounts below are given for a 12-well plate format. Use Table 1 to adjust the reagent volumes for other plate sizes. Protocol Plate cells (in 10% FBS-containing medium) at an appropriate density so they will reach 70-80% confluence (transfection with plasmid) or 40-60% confluence (transfection with siRNA alone or siRNA/plasmid) at the time of transfection. Add 4 µl of TransPass HeLa Transfection Reagent to 100 µl of serum-free medium (e.g., DMEM/high glucose) in a sterile tube (one per sample well) and mix well. Incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Add 1-3 µg of plasmid DNA and/or 1.5-30 pM of siRNA to the reagent-medium mixture. Incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Add the transfection complex mixture to the well, and evenly disperse the complex mixture by gently rocking the plate. Return the plate to the incubator and incubate cells overnight. Replace the transfection medium with complete medium (i.e. 10% FBS-DMEM) the next day and incubate 24-72 hours before assaying.
