Eppendorf Eporator

Description

The Eppendorf Eporator is a compact benchtop instrument designed for electroporation, a technique used to introduce nucleic acids into microbial cells. It operates by delivering electrical pulses across a wide voltage range, from 200 to 2500 volts, to temporarily permeabilize cell membranes. This process is primarily applied for the transformation of bacterial and yeast cells. The device features a user interface for programming standard electroporation protocols. For record-keeping and data transfer, the unit is equipped with a USB port to export experimental parameters and results. Its small footprint makes it suitable for installation in typical laboratory workspaces where genetic manipulation of microorganisms is performed.
