摘要
A simple, low cost device for electrotransformation has been designed and constructed. The cost of the circuit was only $150. Maximum field strength of 12,000 V/cm with an actual time constant up to 11 msec was obtained with a newly designed circuitry and a 0.1-cm electrode gap cuvette. Eschericia coli strains DH1, DH5α, and LE392 were transformed at an efficiency of 109/μg DNA with plasmids pUC18 and pBR322. E. faecalis strain OG1X was transformed at an efficiency of 0.9 × 105/μg DNA without treatment with glycine. © 1991.
