Reliable.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Cloning to make plasmids for transfecting

This worked very well. I used it because the first time my experiment failed and I wanted to find out where the problem was. I used these to compare and found out the comp cells we were using were not working. These ones did, though, and everything worked out after.

Application Area:

Cloning

The item was so easy to clone plasmid with in a short time and was very handy. In addition, the outcome was reasonable compared with other companies' products. Recommend to use when you do not have enough time and still need successful results.
