Cuvettes
Cyto Pulse Sciences cuvettes are where superior quality meets the requirements of stringent laboratory budgets. With a maximum allowable electric field of 25 kV/cm, these individually wrapped and sterilized cuvettes are immediately ready to process any given cell line, whether it be mammalian, yeast, bacteria, plant, insect, or so on. In addition, three different gap widths of 1 mm, 2 mm, and 4 mm are available to accommodate the various needs of research for cell capacity and desired electric field. Cyto Pulse cuvettes are intended for single use only.
Compatible with all industry-standard electroporation systems Polished aluminum plates guarantee uniform pulse delivery Individually sealed and gamma irradiated for absolute sterility 2% electrode gap tolerance ensures high transfection consistency Easy to handle rounded caps, color-coded for quick identification Precision molded polycarbonate prevents undesirable leaking Clear case design for sample visibility

Model Number	Gap Width	Cap Color	Minimum Volume	Maximum Volume	Qty
CUV-01	1 mm	White	20 µl	100 µl	50
CUV-02	2 mm	Blue	40 µl	360 µl	50
CUV-04	4 mm	Red	80 µl	670 µl	50

Cuvette Holder
	Cyto Pulse's heavy-duty electroporation cuvette holder will operate with all major cuvette manufacturers, although Cyto Pulse cuvettes are recommended for best results. The insertion mechanism is notched to prevent incorrect cuvette positioning and only upon full insertion will high voltage become enabled to pulse. A large plastic barrier surrounds the cuvette field to completely block any contact with the electrodes.

96-Well Electroporation
The PA-96W electrode system consists of a gold-plated array, a polystyrene microplate, and a base holder design. The array is inserted into the base along with a disposable square-well microplate and brought together to form the electrode, significantly reducing running costs when compared to a disposable 96-Well metal electrode. Array cleaning by alcohol allows approximately 50 uses.

Model Number	Description
96W-A	96-Well array, 5.4 mm gap, 200-400 µl volume, 50 uses
96W-B	96-Well base, holds Array and Microplate
96W-P-N10	Microplate, non-sterile, 10 pack
96W-P-N50	Microplate, non-sterile, 10 pack x 5
96W-P-S10	Microplate, sterile, 10 pack
96W-P-S50	Microplate, sterile, 10 pack x 5

Electrofusion
	Cyto Pulse coaxial electrodes are exclusively used by the Cyto Pulse PA-101 electrofusion system. Specifically designed to provide ideal conditions for cell alignment and continuity throughout the chamber, these electrodes ensure vastly improved efficiency over other fusion methods. Available in three volumes of 350 µl, 750 µl, and 1000 µl. The holder features a slide-in design that detects if the electrode has been properly inserted.
