EB5Alpha is a derivative of the DH5α™ strain and the best strain for everyday cloning. These chemically competent cells are manufactured using a proprietary technology that renders the cells highly efficient for DNA uptake. High transformation efficiency means a higher number of clones and greater representation. Cells are conveniently packaged in singe use tubes.
- Guaranteed Transformation Efficiencies – ≥ 109 cfu/µg pUC19
- High Quality Plasmid DNA – Mutations of endA and recA genes increase insert stability and improve the quality of plasmid DNA
- Supports Blue/White Screening – Through β-galactosidase complementation
- T1 and T5 bacteriophage resistant – Contains the tonA gene
