The Novagen® BacMagic™-2 transfection kit provides a positive selection for creating baculovirus recombinants in preparation for recombinant protein expression in insect cells. The kit improves on the traditional method for generating recombinant baculoviruses by eliminating the tedious, time-consuming steps of plaque purification.

The Novagen® BacMagic™-2 transfection kit contains BacMagic™-2 DNA, Insect GeneJuice® transfection reagent, and a positive control plasmid to monitor co-transfection efficiency. In addition, it contains Sf9 cells and BacVector® medium, for optimal transfection performance.
