PDS-1000/He System with Hepta™ Adaptor
The Hepta adaptor for the PDS-1000/He biolistic system enables 7–10 times more cells to be transformed than the standard system. It fits into the shocking chamber of the PDS-1000/He system where it splits the helium shock wave over seven macrocarriers. By uniformly spreading the DNA-coated gold or tungsten particles over this larger area, the system maximizes the number of cells transformed during one bombardment. As the helium is split seven ways, pressure and particle velocities are reduced, making the system ideal for plants and cell cultures requiring less forceful penetration.
