Single Cell Sequencing Service for Oncology and Immunology

An expanded offering for single cell sequencing services has been announced by Macrogen Europe.  Clients will now have access to an enormous array of options for input material, DNA library preparation and analysis. It provides scientists with highly in-depth transcriptomic data that is invaluable in areas such as immunology and oncology research.

Macrogen Europe’s offering includes the 10x Genomics Chromium 3’ single cell gene expression and the 5’ single cell immune profiling workflows. These workflows are widely used in single cell research and ensure excellent comparability with previously published studies. They also provide tremendous flexibility in terms of tissue types, cell numbers, and data output. Advanced data analysis pipelines are offered as an easy turnkey solution for intuitive visualisations of the sequencing data.

Immunology is a field of research where cell heterogeneity holds critical information on many important biological questions. Many populations of immune cells cannot be studied adequately when analysed as a single, uniform group. A single cell approach is needed to understand the underlying genomic mechanisms in many immunology-related research projects.

“Single cell sequencing is rapidly gaining popularity among genomics researchers,” said Dr Seungeun Lee, Technical Support Lead at Macrogen Europe. “Our upgraded service can help many scientists quickly start using this technology.” Macrogen Europe’s CEO, Dr Bongcho Kim, added: “We aim to remain a reliable outsourcing partner with a cutting-edge, versatile offering for our biotech and academic clients. This expansion of our portfolio is an important step in ensuring that we offer a broad portfolio of genomics services quickly and cost-effectively.”

Macrogen Europe has been offering fast, high-quality Sanger and next generation sequencing services since 2008. Using the latest DNA sequencing technology from industry-leading suppliers such as Illumina, Pacific Biosciences and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Macrogen Europe delivers accurate, reliable results to researchers and industry professionals across Europe and Africa.
