Electrocompetent cells are made using an electrical pulse from an electroporator. This creates temporary pores in the cell membrane, disrupting this membrane allows for exogenous material to enter the cell. Intact Genomics electrocompetent cells come in a variety of strains with proven highest efficiency.
