#97627 RE: drbio45 #97537

Transient transformation by agroinfiltration using vacuum infiltration is no big deal and inserting gene into the expression cassette is also something any grad student did at my time (and that was long ago). The viral vector is the most critical compound and I'm certain iBio's vector is not as good as they are saying (never take what the company people are telling you for granted). I'm sure it is suitable for small antigens such as vaccines but with large proteins, expression will be a problem. Icon for example are using similar tech but has a better viral vector so I don't see anything special about iBio. When comparing iBio to PLX you can try to value each system's advantages/disadvantages but saying iBio is much more versatile just because iBio people told you so, well, I think I should quit here.
