Selectivity factor
text:
Selectivity factor is a quantifiable measure of how efficient an antibiotic is during the process of gene selection. It measures of the capacity an antibiotic to select for transfected (resistant) cells that contain a selectable marker, while killing untransfected (sensitive) cells that do not contain a selectable marker. A selectivity factor higher than 10 is optimal. This means the concentration of antibiotic is sufficient to kill untransfected cells but not toxic enough to kill transfected ce
