Ar.A4 Chemically Competent Cell

The genotype of Ar.A4 Chemically Competent Cell is Agrobacterium rhizogenes (kan^R) Ar A4 Ri (agropine type). Agrobacterium rhizogenes is a Gram-negative soil bacterium that can infect most dicotyledons, a few monocotyledons and some gymnosperms. The Ar. A4 Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain contains agrobacterium-type Ri plasmid with a broad host range (corn, tobacco, carrot, licorice, etc.) and kanamycin resistance.

Ar.A4 Chemically Competent Cell is suitable for transgenic operations of corn, tobacco, carrot, licorice and other plants.

1. Volume of DNA from ligation mix should not exceed 1/10 of the cell mixture; DNA for transformation should be purified and free of organic substances such as ethanol.
2. Do not pipette or vortex cells.
3. Plating volume can be adjusted accordingly.

Store at - 80 °C for 12 months.

Ar.A4: 100 μL/tube * 10 tube/50 tube/100 tube.

Transformation efficiency of Ar.A4 Chemically Competent Cell using pK7WGF2 plasmid (spectinomycin resistance) with 50 μg/mL spectinomycin is >10^4 cfu/μg DNA.
