A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the ...

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) has spent the past decade maturing into a foundational technology. Over that time, the technology has both laid the foundation for building cell atlases and allowed ...

Illumina has begun rolling out a series of updates to its top-of-the-line DNA sequencer models, with the goal of making the high-throughput machines more attractive to smaller laboratories. For its ...

Our bodies are made up of around 75 billion cells. But what function does each individual cell perform and how greatly do a healthy person’s cells differ from those of someone with a disease? To draw ...

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is prominently used for analyzing elemental composition in individual cells. However, the conventional sample introduction system of ICP-MS causes ...

New model extracts stiffness and fluidity from AFM data in minutes, enabling fast, accurate mechanical characterization of living cells at single-cell resolution. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Cells are not ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

As single-cell genomics experiments grow in size, so too does the need for sequencing. Several large projects have recently called on the relative newcomer to the NGS scene, Ultima Genomics, for their ...
