CellEDIT - CRISPR Cell Line Engineering Service

What does CellEDIT service provide?

• gRNA design from the CellEDIT experts.
• Two edited clones & two Wild Type clones that went through the CellEDIT workflow (1 cryovial per clone). 
• Full gRNA design report before starting the CellEDIT workflow.
• Full final report including sequencing results of both alleles, monoclonality proof, mycoplasma testing.

What does CellEDIT offer on demand?

• Additional clones.
• Off-target analysis & Report. 
• Additional information useful for further analysis or publication can be also provided on request.
• Extended quality control available on request.

How does CellEDIT service work?

To provide the best editing service, onboarding of your cell line and injection optimization are required prior to starting the CellEDIT workflow. Once we are familiar with your cell line, the CellEDIT workflow starts with the single-cell injection of CRISPR reagents and ends once we obtained successfully edited clones.

Why should I contact the CellEDIT team?

Cell line engineering can be complex and highly project specific. A direct discussion with the CellEDIT sales team ensures that your project requirements are fully understood from the beginning and aligned with the appropriate technical strategy.

During the discussion, you can specify your desired cell line. If your cell line is not listed on our website, you can communicate this directly to the team.

You will also define the type of edit required and the gene you wish to target. If the exact target gene is not yet finalized, you can explain your research objective so that we can help clarify the most appropriate approach. Any additional technical details, constraints, or deliverables can be reviewed during this conversation to ensure complete alignment.

After the discussion, our team will evaluate your requirements and provide a tailored proposal outlining scope, feasibility, and timeline. Engaging directly with the CellEDIT team ensures that your project is accurately defined and appropriately structured from the outset.

Can I send my own cells?

Yes, this is possible. If you wish to send your own cells, please contact the CellEDIT team and indicate that the cells are user supplied. By doing so, you confirm that Cytosurge is authorized to perform edits on the specified cell lines on your behalf.

Can you purchase a cell line for me?

For simplified licensing formalities and reduced costs, and if you work in Academia, we recommend you to either:

• Send your cell lines directly to Cytosurge.
• Order cells in your name and ship them directly to Cytosurge.

Otherwise, we can purchase a cell line for you from established companies (e.g. Sigma, Thermo Fisher, ATCC). The costs for the cells, shipping and (if required) the licensing fees will be added to the quote.

Which shipping company should I use for sending the cells?

Cytosurge has partner companies that can take care of the shipping for you. Alternatively, you can use your preferred shipping company at your own risk. Please make sure that you inform us in advance that your cells are being shipped, and provide us with all required information (provider, tracking number).

Do I have to fill out customs documents if I ship my cells?

We will provide you with all the required documentation. The cells are picked up by our courier service on Mondays or Tuesdays to avoid weekend shipping.

What do you do with my generated cells after the CellEDIT service?

Your edited cells will be kept for a maximum of 3 months after shipping the order to you. Upon request, this period can be extended. 

Cytosurge does not claim any IP on your cells or edits. The license belongs to the organization that purchased the edited cells
