What is Fluidigm C1?

What is Fluidigm C1?

The C1 system is the world’s first commercially available, automated single-cell isolation and preparation system for genomic analysis. The C1 System provides an easy and highly reproducible gene expression workflow to process 96 single cells across 96 mRNA targets.

How does Fluidigm C1 work?

Technology. The innovative C1 system carefully isolates single cells into individual reaction chambers in the exclusive Fluidigm integrated fluidic circuit (IFC). The optically clear IFC lets you automatically stain captured cells and examine them by microscopy for viability, surface markers or reporter genes.

What does Fluidigm do?

Fluidigm Corporation is a public, American company engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of biological research equipment based on integrated fluidic circuit technology.

What are the applications of Fluidigm C1 system?

The C1™ system supports DNA sequencing, mRNA sequencing, targeted gene expression, miRNA analysis and additional applications through the C1 Open App™ IFC (integrated fluidic circuit). Download the C1 system software update and then follow the instructions for updating the C1 system software.

How is Fluidigm used in a CyTOF system?

Conjugate metals to antibodies or other proteins in as little as two and a half hours with our Maxpar labeling kits, optimized for use with CyTOF systems. Identify nucleated cells with dead cell discrimination and detect cells in S phase of the cell cycle with our Cell-ID labeling reagents.

Which is immune profiling software does Fluidigm use?

Maxpar ® Pathsetter™ is a fully automated reporting and data analysis solution that automatically identifies 37 immune cell types in FCS files from samples processed with the Maxpar Direct Immune Profiling System .

Which is the latest version of CyTOF software?

CyTOF ® Software v7.0 offers support for imaging and cell suspension-based sample analysis to Hyperion™ Imaging System and Helios™ system users. The software has the built-in capability to switch sample introduction modes, providing users the flexibility to configure hardware as required.
