24. KAON12 was dissolved in a chloroform/MeOH (50/50) solution, and by the use of an evaporator, a thin membrane was formed along the wall of a glass tube. Then, by the use of a voltex, the thin membrane was subjected to ultrasound at 50°C and dispersed in a Tris buffer (pH: 7.5) to attempt lipid aggregate formation.
25. Various amounts of cationic compounds were mixed to fixed amount (150 ng) of pGL3-control in order to obtain charge ratio (+/-) ranging from 0 to 3.2. After 30 min incubation at 37°C, the complexes were electrophoresed through a 0.8% agarose gel for 45 min at 100V. DNAs were stained by ethidium bromide.
26. 2) was irradiated for zero or ten minutes, and the results were compared. The measurement of transfection efficiencies was performed in triplicate.
