Description
The Eppendorf ® Eporator is a compact instrument designed for
fast and controlled electroporation of bacteria, yeast and other
microorganisms. The instrument is unique due to its intuitive
operation and user-friendly programming of standard methods,
as well as its USB port, via which experimental data may be
easily exported and documented.
The Eppendorf Eporator is designed to deliver ideal conditions
for electroporation of your bacteria and yeast, leading to
a transformation efficiency far higher than with chemical
transformation (heat shock).
