Key Highlights

High Transfection Efficiency & Broad Cell/RNA Spectrum

Powered by a novel cationic lipid delivery platform, RNAiBoost exhibits enhanced membrane-perturbing and fusion capabilities. It successfully overcomes the endocytosis barriers of traditionally difficult-to-transfect cell types, including primary, immune, and suspension cells. Achieving >90% target gene knockdown, it is universally compatible with siRNA, miRNA mimics/inhibitors, shRNA, and fluorescent RNA oligos.

Advanced Endosomal Escape & Ultra-High Intracellular Utilization

RNAiBoost solves the delivery "last mile" problem. Featuring pH-sensitive membrane disruption, the novel lipids induce membrane rupture or pore formation upon endosomal acidification, enabling the efficient cytosolic release of functional siRNA. This exceptional intracellular utilization ensures that less is more—delivers robust gene silencing at siRNA concentrations as low as 2–50 nM by preventing endosomal entrapment and degradation.

Excellent Cell Viability & Minimal Cytotoxicity

The optimized lipid formulation is engineered to maximize intracellular delivery while prioritizing cell health. Because the system requires a much lower dosage of both reagent and siRNA to achieve optimal knockdown, it significantly minimizes off-target effects and reagent-induced cytotoxicity, maintaining excellent cell viability and physiological relevance.

Fast, Streamlined Workflow & Reliable Reproducibility

Accelerate your research with a simple protocol where complex formation takes as little as 5 minutes. The system is fully compatible with serum- and antibiotic-containing media, requiring no medium replacement. This frictionless workflow dramatically reduces hands-on time while providing the highly consistent, reproducible gene silencing performance required for functional genomics and high-throughput screening (HTS).

Cell Transfection FAQs

What type of transfection reagent is this?

This transfection reagent is based on lipids-based technology, enabling efficient intracellular delivery of small RNA molecules with low cytotoxicity.

What cell types is this reagent suitable for?

The reagent is optimized for a broad range of cell types, including: adherent cells, suspension cells, primary cells, stem cells, difficult-to-transfect cells.

Is medium replacement required after transfection?

No. The reagent is fully compatible with serum- and antibiotic-containing media, so medium replacement is generally unnecessary.

What is the recommended siRNA concentration?

For most applications, 5–20 nM siRNA is recommended. Efficient knockdown can often be achieved with concentrations as low as 2 nM.

How long does complex formation take?

Complex formation is rapid and typically completed within 5 minutes at room temperature.

What is the optimal cell confluency for transfection?

For adherent cells, 30–70% confluency at the time of transfection is generally recommended.

How soon can gene knockdown be detected?

mRNA knockdown is typically detectable within 24 hours, while protein knockdown is commonly observed after 48–72 hours.

Does the reagent cause cytotoxicity?

The optimized formulation is designed to minimize cytotoxicity while maintaining high transfection efficiency. Optimization is still recommended for sensitive cell types.

I observed cell death following transfection with RNAiBoost. What should I do?

Remove antibiotics from the culture medium during transfection, as this can induce stress and result in cell death. Try adjusting the quantities of both the lipid reagent and siRNA. Use low-passage cells to ensure better viability. Consider testing for hard-to-detect microbial contaminants, such as mycoplasma.
