A Message from BTX
Thank you for investing in a Gemini System.
Since its founding in 1983, the main focus of BTX has been in the area of applying controlled electric fields for
genetic engineering applications. Because of this, we quickly established a reputation as the technological leader
in the fields of electroporation and electrofusion. Our systems have been installed in many prestigious institutes
around the globe where they are used successfully for high efficiency transfection, transformation and cell fusion
applications. We offer a variety of waveforms, electrodes and chamber options to provide you with the tools to
achieve your goals.
We are vested in your success. To that end, the BTX technical support team constantly tracks published literature
for any reference to electroporation and electrofusion. We extract the pertinent experimental conditions and yields
from these papers to help us in our efforts to help you. In addition to tracking publications, we are available to you
for support at any time for advice in experimental design, product recommendations, troubleshooting, and any
other relevant technical advice.
We thank you again for your investment and we look forward to assisting you in any way we can.
Finally, please read this manual carefully before attempting to operate the electroporation system. If you have any
