Gene Editing
Genetic engineering has revolutionized our ability to understand, prevent and treat disease. New techniques are being developed to meet the demand for safer, more efficient gene editing. To enable you to use these new tools effectively, MaxCyteⓇ electroporation delivers virtually any combination of molecules, efficiently and reproducibly, without sacrificing cell viability.
Perform gene insertion, deletion or correction with a non-viral gene transfer platform that satisfies the stringent demands of clinical use, but has the flexibility to meet all your research needs.
Healthier cells for efficient editing
Whether editing cells as a therapeutics or to create better disease models, you need healthy, functional cells. It’s crucial to choose a transfection method designed to ensure cell survival and efficacy.
We developed our non-viral gene transfer platform with cell viability in mind, with a non-toxic buffer and optimized protocols for your cells and cargo. MaxCyte electroporation enables efficient loading of diverse payloads while maintaining healthy cells.

Discover high-efficiency gene editing
When using primary cells, factors such as editing efficiency, cell toxicity and scalability are crucial for developing a viable workflow. With MaxCyte you can rely on our engineering excellence to ensure large-scale high-efficiency editing with the maximum cell viability in sensitive cell populations.
Scalable, cGMP compliant electroporation technology from concept to clinic
Progressing a discovery from concept to clinic is complex and challenging, we have faced many of these obstacles and supported our collaborators to overcome them. Avoid experimental re-optimization by using the right technology from day one. MaxCyte provides the only clinically validated electroporation technology that scales seamlessly from bench to bedside. Partner with MaxCyte and let us help you to navigate the most efficient path to success.
