Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera zenker, commonly known as brussels sprout, is a biennial herb in the Brassicaceae family. Brussel sprout is mainly consumed for its fresh leaflets formed in the axillary buds of the plant and has the highest protein content of any leafy vegetable. Brussel sprout contains 20 essential vitamins that help boost the immune system and reduce the chance of disease infection. In addition, Brussel sprout is rich in minerals such as Zn, K, Ca, P, Mg, and Mn, which help to promote cell division, repair, and regeneration. Specifically, Brussel sprout contains sulfur ligands. Sulfur ligands are isothiocyanates, natural pesticides in plants and can reduce poisoning, chronic diseases, and gastritis caused by H. pylori. Currently, research on transgenic plants has become a hot area for agricultural improvement. For Brussel sprout, the important improved traits include disease resistance, insect resistance, herbicide resistance, salt tolerance, cold tolerance, and storage tolerance.
Lifeasible has been committed to providing you with one-stop genetic transformation services for brussels sprout, covering experimental design, vector construction, plasmid transformation, positive screening, and transgene identification. We mainly use the mainstream Agrobacterium transformation method to introduce the target gene into the genome of brussels sprout and screen the seedlings that meet the customer's requirements after PCR identification. We offer several Agrobacterium strains (LBA4404, GV3101, EHA105, AGL1, C58, GV2260) and selectable vector markers (Kanamycin, Hygromycin, Phosphinothricin, G418). Our versatile brussels sprout genetic transformation platform can adapt to the various needs of our customers and provides more selectivity. In addition, the various genetic modification services we offer can be viewed by the link below after clicking on it.
Customers can provide constructed brussels sprout transformation vectors directly, and Lifeasible also offers vector construction services.
| Concentration | Volume | Other requirements |
| 80-100 ng/μL | ≥10 μL | no degradation & no contamination |
| Bacterial broth | Bacterial plate |
| Bacterial broth up to 1-year-old, preserved in glycerol | Bacterial plate activated within one week |
*For special varieties and customized services, the experiment time and the number of seeds needed may be increased. For this, please contact our staff for more information.
*Plasmids, E. coli, and Agrobacterium require cryopreservation and mailing under dry ice to avoid degradation, inactivation, and impact on experimental results.
*The strains, vectors, and receptor materials used in the experiment can be saved for free for half a year for customers, and you can pick them up at any time if you need them.
Our entire experimental process is standardized and scalable, enabling the customization and improvement of traits in different brussels sprout varieties. Our staff will proactively and regularly keep you informed of the progress and results of your experiments, and you will be notified by email of key points in particular. Our one-stop personalized solutions are designed to simplify your transgenic research to the maximum extent possible, and you will feel relaxed and comfortable as our partner. All experimental procedures will follow strict QC standards and be operated by experienced plant geneticists.
