Collection: Competent E.coli Cells for Cloning & Expression

High-Efficiency Competent E. coli Cells for Cloning & Protein Expression

Amid Biosciences provides a comprehensive selection of high-efficiency chemically competent cells and electrocompetent cells tailored for specialized molecular biology applications. All products are For Research Use Only (RUO) and manufactured to ensure optimal transformation efficiencies for critical laboratory workflows.

Optimized Strains for Every Workflow

• Cloning & Subcloning: High-efficiency AB 5-alpha and DH10B cells optimized for large plasmids and genomic library generation.
• Recombinant Protein Expression: Standard BL21(DE3) alongside specialized strains like BL21(λDE3)pBirA for in vivo biotinylation and BL21(λDE3)pLPP for producing non-phosphorylated proteins.
• Phage Display Libraries: High-titer ER2738, SS320, and TG1 competent cells optimized for robust peptide and antibody fragment display.
