“One of the main challenges for single cell CRISPR screening is achieving high guide RNA recovery rate, and the Scale CRISPR Guide Enrichment Kit enables us to maximize guide RNA recovery and makes our large single cell CROP experiments a lot easier.”

Key advantages

Superior sensitivity

  • Compared to traditional CROP-seq methods utilizing polyA capture, our kit enables much higher guide sensitivity with a custom RT primer

Customizable library prep

  • No need to change vectors, our library prep is compatible with any CROP-style vector
  • Customize your enrichment strategy by selecting either our Cas9 or non-Cas9 kits

Easily scalable

  • Run 125,000 cells per experiment, or use our extended throughput plates to capture up to 500,000 cells

Streamlined workflow

CRISPR Guide Enrichment Kit is designed based on the Scale Bio Single Cell RNA Sequencing Kit workflow, but includes guide-specific priming during RT and a guide-specific PCR enrichment step. Compatible with Cas9 and non-Cas9 vectors, the Guide Enrichment Kit offers flexibility for your high-throughput single cell screening.

Frequently asked questions

We do provide a software tool specific to the CRISPR Guide Enrichment Kit.

We have tested compatibility on MiSeq, iSeq, NextSeq 500/550, NextSeq 1000/2000, NovaSeq6000.

Even with a 10-fold increase in throughput, our combinatorial indexing method results in an effective doublet rate of ~4.7%.
