SAINT-2
Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
SAINT-2 is a cationic lipid with gene transfection activity and is a pyridyl lipid analog. Molecular membranes prepared by SAINT-2 can interact with plasmids to form lipid complexes. After the complex is taken up by cells, the plasmid dissociates from the lipid complex under the action of DOPE and the plasmid translocates across the endosome and/or nuclear membrane. Thus, SAINT-2 effectively transfers small oligonucleotides into cells[1].
