Low-pressure Gene Delivery System (GDS-80)

GDS-80 is invented upon patented aerodynamic theory to utilize a supersonic gas flow generated by the pressure difference between inside the barrel and gas chamber, and accelerate the bio-particles to 300m / sec by low pressure Helium gas or 200m / sec by Nitrogen gas. GDS-80 can be widely used in the fields of gene therapy, vaccine development, transient or stable gene expression, transgenic plant study, agriculture biotechnology, and immune research. It is a highly efficient biolistic transfection tool to deliver not only micro carrier-coated particle for plant cell transfection but also naked DNA for in vivo and in vitro cell transfection. Transfected reporter gene, such as GUS, GFP, can found easily around bombardment site. Furthermore, due to the low pressure is used to drive the particle into the cell, it provides minimal cell damage and lowest noise. Wide range accessories are available for living plant, leaf, pollen, petri-dish.

Main Body All stainless steel made mainly consist of O-ring in between ensure no gas leakage. Weighted around 1.2 kg.
Sample loading sleeve Finger-tight eight sample loading holes without using tools. Allow right-handed and left-handed users to adjust the barrel for their regular using habit.
Barrel Autoclavable 4.5(plant)/10.0(animal) mm inside diameter barrel designed with inner mirror surface keeps no resistance while performing particle delivery.
Mechanical differential Needle Valve Adjustable differential needle valve optimizes spray even.
Safety Pressed-release safety trigger prevents mistake happened when the process is not ready yet.
Connection Double side female stainless steel quick connector equipped with 8mm ID Nylon hose for connecting main body and gas cylinder within a second without any tool.
Adjust & display Two pressure gauges equipped regulator with flow meter, adjustable up limit to 80 psi bypass releasing valve prevent to damage the trigger.
The spec is subject to change without prior notice.
