Glycofect is a new transfection reagent that eliicits low cytoxicity response coupled with high delivery effciency and transgene expression.  Glycofect is a superior reagent for primary cell transfection as compared to leading lipid and polycation-based products.


Glycofect is a cationic carbohydrate-containing synthetic polymer based on poly-glycoamidoamine (PGAA) polymer library developed by Dr. Theresa M. Reineke et al. These polymers contain linkages that hydrolyse upon endocytosis, thereby increasing plasmid delivery and reducing toxicity.
