User Guides & Demonstrated Protocols
Peace of mind with every run
Filippov et al. in BMC Genomics (2024) found that '10x showed higher cell capture efficiency and lower inter-sample variability'
Fast, efficient protocols let you complete your workflow in 1 day—half the time of manual methods
Maximize results, minimize hidden costs
Chromium instrument-supported methods
Ensures consistent performance across experiments, users, and chips.
Minimizes handling and user errors with fast and reliable workflows.
Makes the most of your precious samples with cell recovery rates of up to 80%.
Gives higher return on your sequencing budget by letting you reduce reads by up to 50%.
Instrument-less methods
Introduces variability across users and assays with manual protocols.
Relies on long workflows with labor-intensive, error-prone methods.
Misses critical data from important cell populations with low cell recovery rates.
Increases sequencing costs since lower sensitivity requires more reads.
