About the 10x Genomics ChromiumX
- Microfluidic system
- Processes cell suspensions for single cell sequencing
- The mRNA of each cell is tagged with a cell-specific nucleic acid barcode
- Users then generate cDNA and sequencing libraries
- Sequencing enables analysis of each individual cell’s complete transcriptome
