Figure 1

Detection of siRNA transfection efficiency. Fifty nmol/L FAM labeled NC-siRNA was transfected into the cells for 6 hours. The nuclei were stained with DAPI. Confocal microscopy (×60) and flow cytometry were employed to detect the transfection efficiency (upper figure A, B and C), siRNA entered the cells, and primarily distributed in the cytoplasm. The lower figure was the result from flow cytometric analysis, D contained untransfected cells, E contained FAM-siRNA transfected cells. The results were analyzed with Win MDI29 software, which indicated that the siRNA transfection efficiency in BRL cells was approximately 90%.
