CRISPR-based knockouts are the gold-standard genetic perturbation method in target identification and validation. However, efficient CRISPR knockout editing and transfection for arrayed screening require specialised skills and infrastructure that your organisation may not have. What if you could receive ready-to-use CRISPR-edited cells without needing to handle, optimise, and transfect your… Read More
