Additional Applications

Cell Surface Protein
Measure single cell gene and cell surface protein expression simultaneously.
CRISPR
Assess effects of CRISPR perturbations alongside single cell gene expression.
Cell Multiplexing
Multiplex up to 12 samples per channel for increased sample throughput.
High Throughput (HT)
