The concentration of bacterial cells can significantly influence transformation success. High cell density can lead to competition for available DNA, reducing uptake efficiency, while very low density may limit the number of transformable cells. Optimizing cell concentration ensures adequate contact between bacteria and DNA, maximizing transformation efficiency. Typical protocols specify an ideal range of bacterial concentration for consistent and reproducible results.
