Shasta Single Cell System
We have entered a new era in single-cell NGS analysis! No longer are you limited to profiling just hundreds of cells and accessing only part of a cell’s rich genetic information. Shasta technologies have surpassed the boundaries of existing methods, enabling the detection of events such as splicing isoforms, gene fusions, and segmental CNVs—in more cells than ever before.

Discover these novel biomarkers through our complete solution: a state-of-the-art, automated dispensing and imaging platform combined with well-validated NGS library prep chemistries and bioinformatics tools for comprehensive data analysis.
- Shasta Total RNA-Seq is the first solution for high-throughput single-cell total RNA profiling with full gene-body coverage
- Shasta Whole-Genome Amplification (WGA) is the first solution for high-throughput single-cell DNA-seq with whole-genome coverage
- Cogent™ NGS tools provide you with a complete end-to-end solution to analyze sequencing data and discover hidden biomarkers without being a bioinformatics expert
The Shasta system includes an integrated optical system, allowing the identification of wells containing single cells for further processing. Additionally, with the use of fluorescence filters, imaging can be used for analysis of cells stained with cellular dyes.
Equipped with Shasta CELLSTUDIO software for intuitive assay development, you can harness the Shasta system to develop pioneering assays of your own. Nanoliter-scale reactions contribute to cost savings on reagents and make the most out of your precious samples.
