Invitrogen™Silencer™ Negative Control No. 1 siRNA

Description

• Ambion™ Silencer™ Negative Control #1 siRNA has no significant sequence similarity to mouse, rat, or human gene sequences The control has also been tested in cell-based screens and proven to have no significant effect on cell proliferation, viability, or morphology Validated for use in human, mouse, and rat cells HPLC purified, duplexed, and ready to use Negative control siRNAs are essential for determining transfection efficiency and to control for the effects of siRNA delivery In siRNA screening applications, negative control siRNAs are also critical for setting the hit threshold that determines whether an siRNA is considered to have a positive, negative, or neutral effect in a particular assay Store at or below -20°C in a non-frost-free freezer
