Advancing biomarker discovery with new technologies
Do your single-cell NGS experiments suffer from low cell throughput, insufficient data quality, or limited tissue context? Start a new story with the Shasta Single Cell System. Uncover new gene isoforms or splice variants with reliable SMART-Seq mRNA Long Read. Incorporate Trekker or Seeker spatial profiling kits upstream of your sequencing to localize your cells. Our progressive technologies empower researchers to generate high-quality genomic, transcriptomic, and spatial information from single cells for enhanced biomarker discovery and biological investigation.
Register for our seminar to learn about these transformative technologies:
Shasta Total RNA-Seq Kit
Obtain full-length single-cell RNA-seq libraries for up to 100,000 cells per run and dive into novel types of biomarkers such as long noncoding RNAs
Shasta Whole-Genome Amplification (WGA) Kit
Examine all types of CNV events at the single-cell level with WGA of up to 1,500 cells per run and shallow sequencing
SMART-Seq mRNA Long Read
Capture full-length mRNA transcripts over 8 kb with exceptional sensitivity from single-cell or low-input samples
Trekker Single-Cell Spatial Mapping Kit
Integrate spatial mapping into existing single-cell workflows with only one additional hour and no complex instruments to achieve high molecular sensitivity
Seeker Spatial Transcriptomics Kit
Combine whole transcriptome analysis with spatial mapping of fresh frozen tissue from your favorite eukaryotic organism at high resolution
See how single-cell analysis with full gene-body coverage, high cell throughput, and additional spatial context can give you the power to detect biomarkers for your translational research. Register below for a discussion on biomarker discovery, paired with food, drink, and giveaways!
Talks:
- The power of sensitivity and coverage at scale
- Introducing Trekker: A transformative approach to single-cell and spatial omics
- Multiomic analysis of DNA/RNA using Oxford Nanopore sequencing
