hey all,

      Invitrogen is marketing a new selection for eukaryotic cells
called "Blasticidin" which
  supposedly selects faster than G418/neomycin.  They claim that you can

get stables in
  as little as 4 days.....and it is 1/4 the price of G418....

    Has anyone tried this new selection?? How is it?  Does it work as
well as they say it
does <grin> ???


let me know what you think.

                                                       paul
