XL10-Gold Competent Cells, 10 x 100 ul

The XL10-Gold ultracompetent cells were designed for cloning large plasmids and ligated DNA with the highest transformation efficiency possible, while exhibiting faster growth and larger colonies. XL10-Gold Ultracompetent Cells possess the high transformation phenotype (Hte), which gives these cells an average transformation efficiency of ≥ 5 x 10^9 transformants/μg of supercoiled DNA Plasmid libraries constructed in this strain are more representative because XL10-Gold cells decrease the bias against large inserts.
