Custom CRISPR Validation Service
Performed a CRISPR experiment, but unsure whether you have the right cell clone for your research? Looking for a third party to confirm your CRISPR results for publication? abm is proud to offer a variety of CRISPR validation options – from sgRNA efficiency screening, genomic cleavage assay, analysis by Sanger sequencing or NGS, to protein-level validation – to provide thorough validation of your CRISPR results.
“We are quite happy with the knockout cells that you made. This was a tricky knockout and hemizygous removal was much more prevalent than the double knockout, but you did it. In addition to your excellent genomic sequence characterization of both mutant LIF alleles, I have confirmed in our lab that the tumor cells have lost all mouse LIF production.””

SERVICE | PURPOSE | MATERIALS TO SUBMIT | DELIVERABLES |
---|---|---|---|
sgRNA Efficiency Screening Service | Validate sgRNA designs in vitro prior to performing CRISPR experiments |
Cell pellet or isolated gDNA from target cells. Alternatively, abm can provide 293T gDNA for free sgRNA sequence information |
Report with Cleavage assay gel image showing the cleavage efficiency of the different sgRNA designs |
Mismatch Cleavage Detection Service (Surveyor/T7E1 Assay) | Upon infection, determine if the polyclonal pool of cells contains edits |
gDNA or cell pellet of CRISPR-edited samples gDNA or cell pellet from Wildtype cell sample |
Cleavage detection assay gel image |
SpeedySeq Sequencing of Target Region | Provides detailed sequence information of the CRISPR target region |
gDNA or cell pellet from CRISPR-edited cells Reference sequence |
10 sequencing results/sample, service report showing alignment to reference sequence |
SpeedySeq Sequencing of PCR Amplicon | Used for preliminary screening to determine whether edits are present. Clean sequencing results can be seen for monoclonal samples. If messy sequencing results are seen at the expected sgRNA cleavage point, then the sample likely contains a mixture of edits/ sequences. |

Disclaimer and Policies
abm is not responsible for storage of any reagents associated with the customer (cell line, DNA, PCR product and cloned plasmids) after one month of the report delivery.
Our goal is always to deliver high-quality validation data to aid you in your research and downstream application. However, CRISPR validation service results are dependent on the sample quality submitted by customers and as such, abm is not in a position to guarantee the final results obtained and full service charges will apply for the services performed. By placing an order with abm, customer agrees to this term.
