Routine cloning and library construction competent cells

The E. cloni® competent cells from Lucigen incorporate a unique manufacturing technology that increases transformation efficiency, recombinant yields and reliability. Available in chemically and electrocompetent formats in a range of high transformation efficiencies, the E.cloni cells are ideal as direct replacements for standard cloning strains (e.g., DH5α™, DH10B™, JM109, TOP10 and XL1-Blue).

Benefits of the E. cloni range
• High yield optimised
• Directly replace standard cloning strains
• phage T1 resistant, endonuclease and recombination minus, blue/white screening-capable
• Range of high electro competent transformation efficiencies (5 x 10⁹ to 4 x 10¹⁰ cfu/µg)
• Range of high chemically competent transformation efficiencies (1 x 10⁶ to 1 x 10⁹ cfu/µg)

Format	Name	Efficiency	Applications
Electrocompetent	E. cloni 10G SUPREME Electrocompetent Cells	> 4 x 10¹⁰ cfu/µg pUC DNA	SUPREME Cells are suitable for construction of large, high complexity libraries or cloning difficult targets, which require the greatest number of transformants possible.
	E. cloni 10G & 10GF´ ELITE Electrocompetent Cells	> 2 x 10¹⁰ cfu/µg pUC DNA	ELITE Cells provide large numbers of transformants from hard-to-clone fragments or limited DNA.
	E. cloni 10G CLASSIC Electrocompetent Cells	> 5 x 10⁹ cfu/µg pUC DNA	These cells are the most economical choice for standard cloning and library construction.
Chemically competent	E. cloni 10G Chemically Competent Cells	> 1 x 10⁹ cfu/µg pUC DNA	Highly efficient competent cells for routine cloning applications. Available in 96-well well format for higher throughput.
	E. cloni 10G Chemically Competent Cells, Subcloning Grade	> 1 x 10⁶ cfu/µg pUC DNA	The best value for simple cloning and plasmid propagation.
	E. cloni 5-alpha Chemically Competent Cells	> 1 x 10⁸ cfu/µg pUC DNA	Useful for routine cloning, subcloning, and plasmid isolation with or without blue/white screening.
