You can submit a request for a Catalyst project directly through the online form, or get in touch with your local Xenium sales specialist/sales executive.

We are offering the same panels through catalyst that customers can buy commercially. You can find details of the different panels here.

Yes. You can place multiple samples (fresh frozen or formalin fixed paraffin embedded) per slide, and up to two different panels can be used in one Xenium run. You can also submit tumor microarrays.

Yes. You can customize your Catalyst project in a variety of ways, using the Xenium Panel Designer to add up to 100 custom genes to any off-the-shelf panel or generate your own custom panel of up to 480 genes.

You can also create an Advanced Custom Panel if you need to analyze or incorporate:

• Species other than human or mouse
• Gene isoforms and/or gene fusions
• Viral or bacterial sequences
• Protein tags, fluorescent reporters, and/or transgenes

See how to design an Advanced Custom Panel here, or reach out to have a specialist walk you through the entire process!

Up to 4 slides (2 slides for projects using Xenium Prime 5K assays). Each slide has an available sample positioning area measuring 10.45 mm X 22.45 mm. You can fill the area with a single section, multiple sections or TMA.

The Catalyst program enables you to quickly process a limited number of samples for the purpose of technology evaluation. While this program does not provide repeat services, we’re happy to connect you with one of our qualified Xenium Service Providers for continued services and/or larger numbers of samples.

Yes, this is part of our standard workflow. After the Xenium experiment is complete, we run an H&E stain on the same slide. The H&E image is then co-registered with the Xenium data and is ready to be visualized on Xenium Explorer.

We currently do not have the resources to run antibodies post-Catalyst run. We would be happy to facilitate an introduction to qualified Xenium service providers who can run post-Xenium IF on your samples.
