The Cell and Gene Therapy Virus Production

TransIT-VirusGEN® Transfection Reagent

Proven Nucleic Acid Delivery for Large-Scale Virus Production

Designed to enhance delivery of packaging and transfer plasmids to adherent and suspension HEK 293 cell types to increase recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) and lentivirus production.

Key benefits of TransIT-VirusGEN® Transfection Reagent include:

  • Performance – Efficient DNA delivery for production of high-titer viral vectors
  • Scalability – Efficient production from < 1 ml to large scale cultures
  • Flexibility – Compatible with different recombinant virus and cell culture systems
  • Animal Origin Free – Fully synthetic transfection reagent formulation

TransIT-VirusGEN® is ideal for academic research and biopharmaceutical discovery. Titers can be further increased with optimized enhancers included in the VirusGEN® AAV Transfection Kit and VirusGEN® LV Transfection Kit. For large-scale production of viral vectors, Mirus recommends TransIT-VirusGEN® GMP.

RevIT™ AAV Enhancer

Paired with any transfection reagent, the RevIT™ AAV Enhancer delivers higher titers for recombinant adeno-associated virus production.

Produce more patient doses at a lower cost and in less time.

High capacity, high yield, and high-quality virus production are essential for advancing the cell and gene therapy field. To increase the production of viral particles, you can scale up the bioreactor or increase the number of bioreactor runs. In other words, do more of the same process.

An alternative solution is to optimize your transfection process with the VirusGEN® transfection platform and RevIT™ AAV Enhancer. You’ll not only increase productivity, but achieve significant long-term time and cost savings.

This novel enhancer is easily integrated into existing workflows, and it produces 2-4x higher titers across a range of serotypes, cellular growth media formulations, and transfection platforms. RevIT™ AAV Enhancer can further drive down upstream manufacturing costs by permitting the use of lower levels of plasmid DNA while maintaining high-quality titers. Continual improvements in both upstream and downstream AAV manufacturing processes will allow the next generation of gene therapies to reach a broader audience.
