Our standard transfection reagent is PEI MAX, but we\u2019re of course also open to using other transfection reagents when required. We generally perform the high-density transfections of plasmid DNA in TPP TubeSpin\u00ae bioreactors. Depending on the volume of the expression cultures, we either grow our cells in sterile Erlenmeyer shake flasks or in 600 ml TPP TubeSpin\u00ae bioreactors (working volume ~ 400 ml).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Baldi L.,&nbsp;Hacker D.L., Adam M., Wurm F.M.
