Özet

Background. Stable transfection of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) has been widely used as a marker for both monitoring protein expression and direct observations of cellular dynamics. Despite the proven utility of GFP as a marker, the appropriate conditions of stable transfection, like selection of optimal concentration of G418 and the effect of passage number on fluorescence emission time has not been fully described for stable transfection of kanamycin/neomycin resistant pIRES-EGFP to Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells by activated dendrimers.
