Efficient DNA transformation of
competent cells is essential for successful cloning
applications. Bioline offers a wide range of E. coli host
strains to meet your requirements. We maintain rigorous
quality control standards to ensure lot-to-lot consistency
and the highest transformation efficiencies possible.
Each E. coli host has different characteristics, and for
optimal results, it is important to use the strain best
suited to your application. The Bioline Competent Cell Selection Table
below provides a summary of the efficiencies, traits and
ideal applications for each Bioline Competent Cell strain. |
