  1. aThe number of crRNAs tested, bcrRNAs were classified into three groups based on the integrated, background subtracted, fluorescent signal relative to the highest signal obtained. Three performance classes were defined: high performance (with signal at 80% or higher), intermediate (signal lower than 80% but higher than 20%) and low (signal at 20% or lower).
