Does HiPerFect work for the transfection of miScript miRNA mimics and inhibitors?

miScript miRNA Mimics are chemically synthesized, double-stranded RNAs which mimic mature endogenous miRNAs after transfection into cells. miScript miRNA Mimics are available at cell-culture grade (>90% purity) or animal grade (HPLC purified; for in vivo applications). For flexible screening, miScript miRNA Mimic Plates enable researchers to order any predesigned miScript miRNA Mimics in their choice of layout in 96-well or 384-well plates. miScript miRNA Inhibitors are suitable for similar experiments. For transfection, QIAGEN provides HiPerFect Transfection Reagent for miRNA Mimic transfection and Attractene Transfection Reagent for miRNA Mimic-DNA cotransfection. For even higher performance in your miRNA studies, try our miRCURY LNA miRNA Mimics. These highly potent, mature miRNA mimics feature a unique, triple RNA strand design for superior results.

HiPerFect Transfection Reagent is a unique blend of cationic and neutral lipids that enables effective siRNA uptake and efficient release of siRNA inside cells, resulting in high gene knockdown even when using low siRNA concentrations. In addition to siRNA, HiPerFect Transfection Reagent is ideally suited to transfection of miRNA mimics or inhibitors. Cell-type-specific protocols using HiPerFect Transfection Reagent are available at the TransFect Protocol Database.
