This volume provides readers with a wide collection of the latest and readily reproducible technical protocols available in the field ofnon-viral gene delivery vectors. The chapters in this book are organized intothree major parts: Part I is a section on conventional bolus gene deliveryvectors that introduces typical transfection approaches relyingon the addition of transfectants to the cell culture medium where the cells aregrown in; Part II covers stimuli-responsive bolus transfectants and topics on gene delivery complexes made of smart polymers orstimuli-responsive polymers that change according to the environment they arein and delivered by dripping into cells; Part III discusses examples ofsubstrate-mediated gene delivery—also termed reversetransfection—and the immobilization of a gene delivery vector onto a surface asopposed to more typical bolus delivery from the medium. Written in the highlysuccessful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters includeintroductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials andreagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips ontroubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and practical, Non-Viral Gene Delivery Vectors: Methods andProtocols is written for experimentalists, and is an essential part of manylaboratory bookshelves. This book will help novice and professionals alikesucceed in their research in this field.
