Negative Control eGFP Reporter Lentivirus

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Applications: Useful to determine the background eGFP reporter activity and establish the specificity of any treatment effects for the Lentivirus reporter system.

Description: The Negative Control eGFP Reporter Lentivirus are replication incompetent, HIV-based, VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral particles that are ready to infect almost all types of mammalian cells, including primary and non-dividing cells. The particles contain an enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (eGFP) gene under the control of a minimal TATA promoter, without any additional transcriptional response elements.

Formulation: The lentiviruses were produced from HEK293T cells. Supplied in medium containing 90% DMEM + 10% FBS.

Storage Stability: Lentiviruses are shipped with dry ice. For long term storage, it is recommended to store the virus at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Titers can drop significantly with each freeze-thaw cycle.

Supplied As: Two vials (500 µl x 2) of negative control eGFP reporter lentivirus at a titer ≥1 x 10^7 TU/ml. The titer will vary with each lot; the exact value is provided with each shipment.

Warnings: Biosafety: The lentiviruses are produced with the SIN (self-inactivation) lentivector which ensures self-inactivation of the lentiviral construct after transduction and integration into the genomic DNA of the target cells. None of the HIV genes (gag, pol, rev) will be expressed in the transduced cells, as they are expressed from packaging plasmids lacking the packing signal.

Biosafety Level: BSL-2
