SureCell WTA 3 Checklist. Prepare Cell and Barcode Suspension Mixes

Transcription

1 Prepare, Count, and Assess Viability of Single-Cell Suspension Dissociate cells for the cell or tissue type you are using. If using adherent cells, neutralize the trypsin by adding 4x the volume. Wash cells once in cold 1X PBS + 0.1% BSA at a volume sufficient to remove carryover components. Centrifuge briefly and resuspend cells in appropriate volume of cold 1X PBS + 0.1% BSA. Prepare Cell and Barcode Suspension Mixes Combine the following components (red caps) in a 1.7 ml tube. Pipette times while on ice, then briefly centrifuge. Cell Enzyme Mix Cell Suspend Buffer 1 Cartridge (4 Samples) DTT Cartridges Create the Barcode Suspension Mix by combining the following components (blue caps) in a 1.7 ml tube on ice. Vortex for 1 second, repeat, then immediately add to the Barcode Buffer. Barcode Suspension Mix for 1 Cartridge (4 Samples) Barcode Buffer ' Barcode Mix Cartridges Pipette cell suspension through the chilled cell filter and transfer filtered cells from the cell filter tube. RNA Stabilizer 6 12 RT Enzyme Use a microscope or automated cell counter to assess cell dissociation, viability, and concentration. If cells are not dissociated to single-cell suspension, mix thoroughly with a P200 or P1000 pipette, as appropriate. Dilute the stock cell preparation to target 2500 cells/µl in 1X PBS + 0.1% BSA solution. Enhancer Enzyme Total Create the Cell Suspension Mix by combining the following components in a 1.7 ml tube on ice. Vortex the cells for 1 second, repeat.
