Mammalian cell transfection is a powerful technique commonly used in molecular biology to express exogenous DNA or RNA in cells and study gene and protein function. Although several transfection strategies have been developed, there is a wide variation with regards to transfection efficiency, cell toxicity and reproducibility. Thus, a sensitive and robust method that can optimize transfection efficiency based not only on expression of the target protein of interest but also on the uptake of the nucleic acids, can be an important tool in molecular biology. Herein, we present a simple, rapid and robust flow cytometric method that can be used as a tool to optimize transfection efficiency while overcoming limitations of prior established methods that quantify transfection efficiency.
