Place your order directly with the manufacturer.
NxSeq™ Single-cell RNA-seq beads contain a covalently attached library of barcoded oligo-dT capture oligonucleotides to enable single-cell mRNA sequencing experiments using Drop-seq1,2 methods or similar instruments. Every bead-attached oligo contains a 12 base, bead-specific barcode, a 14 base unique molecular identifier (UMI) that is distinct between oligos, and a 3’ 30 base, oligo-dT mRNA capture sequence.
- Consistent: Each lot of beads has tightly controlled bead size and produces consistent performance lot to lot.
- Powerful: The 14 base UMI enables sequencing and identification of more unique reads.
- Quality-controlled: Each batch of beads is functionally tested to ensure you get the consistent performance you require from experiment to experiment.
- Flexible: Custom dispensing and pricing available for bulk, high volume purchases.
