Viral Vector Development

Viral vectors are a core component of gene therapies. In spite of improvements in efficiency with sophisticated packaging lines, viral vector development and production remain a costly bottleneck in the advancement of new gene therapy treatments.

Get a head start on your journey to the clinic by partnering with MaxCyte® to take control of your viral vector development.

Efficient transfection in any cell culture system

Whether your gene therapy uses lentivirus, adeno-associated virus (AAV) or another viral vector type, you need to deliver DNA or RNA to cells.
Viral vector development is complex enough, and you can rely on MaxCyte electroporation technology for efficient, reproducible transfection of virtually any cell type, in suspension or adherent culture.

Confidently scale up your optimized viral vector production process

Developing an optimized process for vector production can take a lot of trial and error.

When you’ve got it right at a small scale, you want to be able to scale up with certainty.

With MaxCyte electroporation you get the same high efficiency no matter how many cells you transfect.
