Nucleofector™ I/II/2b Software Updates
The software of a NucleofectorTM I, II or 2b Device comprises
- The operational software (firmware) which controls the system
- The NucleofectorTM Programs which correspond to the list of Optimized Protocols that are provided with the NucleofectorTM Kits which can be downloaded at www.lonza.com/protocols.
New NucleofectorTM Programs can be easily added to your NucleofectorTM Device using a software Chip Card. By inserting the Chip Card into the Chip Card slot the update starts automatically and is finished in just one minute. You can request a Chip Card for free via the form.
To send the correct Chip Card for your device, we need to know:
