Lentivirus Transduction Protocol: Infecting your target cells

So you've packaged and harvested your lentiviruses and you're ready to infect your target cells! But, what lentivirus transduction protocol should you use? Depending on whether you're infecting adherent or suspension cells or difficult-to-transduce cell types, we have different infection recommendations for you! In this video, we'll explain:
→ How to perform a lentiviral transduction experiment
→ An overview of the spinoculation and reverse transduction methods
→ How to confirm transgene expression
Lentiviruses are extremely useful gene delivery systems for delivering cDNA, shRNA, and sgRNA to stably express, knockdown, or knockout your gene of interest in your target cells. Once you learn how to use lentiviruses for your own experiment, you'll be able to target not only dividing cells but also post-mitotic, non-dividing cells like neurons.

very helpful

[@jeannguyen4333]

TYSM very interesting for all WW to understand mechanism. Best for new ARN messager WW.

[@abmgood]

Thanks for watching our content!

[@johncgibson4720]

so good

[@cutlerwhitely2269]

Awesome video!

[@abmgood]

Thanks for watching! :)

Thanks for your video! Do you change the cluture medium into fresh medium without drugs after untransduced cells completely die?

[@teteteteta2548]

Cool!

Overnight means how many hour??

Plz why exactly we need this condition why we care about the CO2?

[@abmgood]

Hello there! Controlling the temperature and levels of CO2 and humidity in the incubator is critical to the health and growth of cultured cells. CO2 is needed as part of the media bicarbonate buffering system to regulate its pH. Carbonic acid is formed when water reacts with CO2, which in turn will react with the bicarbonate ions in the media to modulate the pH. The dye Phenol red is commonly used in media to monitor the pH: red indicates a physiological pH, purple shows an alkaline pH and yellow indicates an acidic pH.

@@abmgood please send me the link to the spinoculation method.
