  • Single Cell FACS before Sequencing

    Hi all,

    we are designing an experiment to compare a control vs. condition (diet based) in rats to trial the new BioRad/Illumina single cell RNAseq protocol. I am interested to know if there are any pitfalls to first running FACS on samples, and sorting into 4 cell types (likely epithelial, keratinocytes, CD9+, CD45+). The protocol requires ~12,000 cell input, but only sequences 300 of these I know...). Therefore splitting into 3,000 x 4 populations in equal amount makes sense. Concern with taking 12,000 of total cell pop. is that with max. 300 cells, we may get swamped by a single cell type (we expect more immune in condition) in some samples.

    Am I missing anything WRT sub-sampling and sequencing those. Seems like a neat experiment but we have not done this before and I am not finding much in literature. Appreciate all and any ideas,

    Bruce.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
