Lentiviral vectors were produced by cotransfection of 293T cells with 5 μg VSV-G envelope plasmid, 10 μg packaging plasmid pCMV · R8.91, and 10 μg transfer vectors. The table shows the comparison in titers of concentrated versus nonconcentrated lentiviral vectors supernatants on CEM × 174 cells. Titers of lentiviral vectors (ip/mL) ± SD were calculated as described in “Materials and methods.” Enrichment in viral titers was calculated as the ratio between lentiviral titers before and concentration (range).
