It could be that the negative was scratched in the camera before you processed the film. If it's near the end of the roll, the scratch could have occured in the developing tank if the film was miswound on the reel. And, as some members have noted, it is even possible to scratch a neg while pulling it in or out of a film sleeve. I have no experience with "no scratch" chemicals. However, using a hardening fixer will help prevent scratches.
