Single cell RNA seq: Explore and interpret single cell gene expression profiles

Single Cell Service Overview

Offering both microfluidics-based and combinatorial-barcoding single cell methods

Transcriptomics of individual cells can allow researchers to gain insights into cellular heterogeneity, identify rare cell types, and uncover new biomarkers for diseases.

 

The SAGC Offers an End-to-End Single Cell Service - From Project Consultation Through to Bioinformatics Analysis.

  • Complete toolkit from 10X Genomics, including Chromium X and Chromium Controller
  • Certified Service Provider for Parse Biosciences
  • Enabling MGI Single Cell (DNBelab) - Only Genomics Facility in Australia with both the MGI DNBSEQ-T7 and DNBSEQ-G400

DECIDING WHICH SINGLE CELL TECHNOLOGY IS RIGHT FOR YOUR EXPERIMENT.

There are several things to consider when deciding which single cell technology is best suited for your experiment. We put together this simple guide to help navigate the features and benefits of the available technologies.

SAGC offers the complete range of 10X Chromium Applications

SAGC has a Chromium Controller and Chromium X Series from 10X Genomics to enable multiomic analysis through droplet GEM-based single cell partitioning and sequencing.

Applications available:

  • Single cell RNA expression (GEX)
  • Single cell Immune Profiling (5' with TCR/BCR options)
  • Single cell ATAC
  • Single cell ATAC + GEX
  • Single cell RNA FLEX (FFPE compatible)
  • Single cell CNV
  • Cell surface marker tagging can be incorporated into some of these techniques and quantified during sequencing. 

 

Chromium GEM-X is NOW AVAILABLE

Updates to the reagent chemistry and microfluidics for both the 3’ Single Cell Gene Expression and the 5’ Immune Profiling solutions.

HIGH THROUGHPUT SINGLE CELL EXPERIMENTS USING COMBINATORIAL BARCODING

Copy of Parse_Logo_rgb

Other single cell technologies (such as EvercodeTM from Parse Biosciences) leverage serial plating as an alternative to 10X, which relies on microfluidics. This can offer some advantages with certain cell types and achieve higher throughput at a lower cost.

Parse Biosciences: leverages combinatorial barcoding

  • Scalable: 10K to 1M cells or nuclei
  • Flexible: Fix and store samples collected on different days for the same run

 
Considerations for deciding between split-pool (combinatorial barcoding) and droplet-based (microfluidics):
 
  • Time course study
  • Collection of cells across different sites
  • Very high-throughput experiments
  • Sensitive detection of very rare cell types

Single cell experiments 'at scale' - the million cell experiment

"The range of single cell technologies on offer and the improvements in throughput are allowing researchers to rethink their experimental design and run a lot more samples."
