Electroporator Leasing for Labs

Lease the electroporator that fits your workflow. Deliver DNA, RNA, or proteins into cells—without tying up your budget.

What Is Electroporation?

Electroporation is a transfection method that uses electrical pulses to create temporary pores in cell membranes, enabling the introduction of nucleic acids, proteins, or other molecules. It’s widely used in cell engineering, gene therapy, and vaccine development. This technique supports high-efficiency delivery into a wide range of cell types while preserving viability and reproducibility.

Why Lease an Electroporator?

Electroporators are indispensable for high-efficiency cell transfection—whether you're working with mammalian, bacterial, or yeast cells. From basic benchtop units to scalable, high-throughput systems, these instruments are essential for synthetic biology, CRISPR workflows, and therapeutic development.

But outfitting your lab with the right electroporation system can be expensive—especially when advanced programmability, cell-type specificity, or multi-well format compatibility is required. Leasing helps you adopt these technologies without the burden of upfront costs. It’s ideal for academic researchers, biotech startups, and core facilities seeking flexibility and scalability as research evolves.

Where Leasing an Electroporator Adds Value

Electroporators are essential for transfection, transformation, and gene editing—but systems with precise pulse control, high-throughput formats, and broad compatibility can be expensive to purchase outright.

Leasing is especially valuable when:

  • You’re conducting CRISPR experiments or cell line engineering and need flexibility across cell types and applications.
  • Your lab requires electroporation for bacterial, yeast, or mammalian systems without capital delays.
  • You want to scale throughput or access advanced presets without overcommitting on budget.

Whether you're optimizing gene delivery or supporting genome engineering, leasing helps you stay productive without financial roadblocks.
