Single Cell 3' v4 Gene Expression

The Chromium™ Single Cell Gene Expression Solution with Feature Barcode technology produces Illumina® sequencer-ready libraries.

Compatible Sequencers

• Illumina® NovaSeq X Series
• Illumina® NovaSeq 6000
• Illumina® HiSeq 3000/4000
• Illumina® HiSeq 2500 Rapid Run
• Illumina® NextSeq 500/550
• Illumina® NextSeq 1000/2000
• Illumina® MiSeq

Recommended Sequencing: Minimum 20,000 read pairs/cell*

Dual Indexed Sequencing Run: Single Cell 3' v4 libraries are dual-indexed. We do not recommend sequencing 10x Single Cell 3’ v4 libraries with a single-index configuration. See: Can single index and dual index libraries be pooled for sequencing?

*Adjust sequencing depth for the required performance or application. The Sequencing Saturation metric and curve in the Cell Ranger run summary can be used to optimize sequencing depth for specific sample types (note: this metric was named cDNA PCR Duplication in Cell Ranger 1.1 or earlier).

**Shorter transcript reads may lead to reduced transcriptome alignment rates. Cell barcode, UMI and Sample index reads must not be shorter than indicated. Any read can be longer than recommended. Additional bases in Sample index reads must be trimmed using cellranger mkfastq or Illumina's bcl2fastq prior to further analysis. Additional bases in Cell barcode or UMI reads will automatically be ignored by Cell Ranger 1.3 or later.
