Provides step-by-step guidance on how to dissociate FFPE samples for Fixed RNA Profiling. 

Sample Preparation from FFPE Tissue Sections for Chromium Fixed RNA Profiling

Prepare single cell/nuclei suspension from fresh samples for fixation or from archived samples by following our Demonstrated Protocols.

Sample Prep

Single Cell Gene Expression Flex enables single cell gene expression on precious samples that were previously inaccessible due to logistical challenges in sample handling. Fixation at the point of sample collection preserves fragile biology and greatly streamlines workflows to provide critical insights on more samples.

Plan ahead by referring to the list of equipment, kits, and reagents needed for Single Cell Gene Expression Flex.
