Purpose

Ready-to-use AAV5 particles produced from pAAV-EF1a-DIO-mCherry (#50462). In addition to the viral particles, you will also receive purified pAAV-EF1a-DIO-mCherry plasmid DNA.

EF1a-driven mCherry-expression control. Cre-dependent. These AAV preparations are suitable purity for injection into animals.

Delivery

• Volume: .
• Titer: ≥ 3×10¹² vg/mL
• Pricing: $350 USD for preparation of . virus + $30 USD for plasmid.
• Storage: Store at -80℃. Thaw just before use and keep on ice.
• Shipment: Viral particles are shipped frozen on dry ice. Plasmid DNA (≥ 200ng) will also be included in the shipment.

Viral Production & Use

Viral Quality Control

Quality Control:

• Addgene ensures high quality viral vectors by optimizing and standardizing production protocols and performing rigorous quality control (QC) (see a list of our QC assays). The specific QC assays performed varies for each viral lot. To learn which specific QC assays were performed on your lot, please contact us.
• Titer: the exact titer of your sample will be reported on the tube. The titer you see listed on this page is the guaranteed minimum titer. See how titers are measured.
