10x Genomics obtained FFPE human prostate tissue from Indivumed Human Tissue Specimens. The tissue was sectioned as described in Visium Spatial Gene Expression for FFPE – Tissue Preparation Guide Demonstrated Protocol (CG000408). Tissue sections of 5 µm were placed on Visium Gene Expression slides, then stained following Deparaffinization, H&E Staining, Imaging & Decrosslinking Demonstrated Protocol (CG000409).
- Block 1E333_Tn17
- Sex: Male
The H&E image was acquired using Metafer Slide Scanning Microscope from MetaSystems with these settings:
- Zeiss Plan-Apochromat 20x objective
- Numerical Aperture: 0.8
- ScopeLED light source
- MetaSystems CoolCube 4c camera
Libraries were prepared following the Visium Spatial Gene Expression Reagent Kits for FFPE User Guide (CG000407 Rev A).
