Abstract: The present invention provides a method for obtaining sequencing-based information from cells/nuclei, the method comprising (a) a first barcoding of cells and/or nuclei of a group of cells and/or nuclei comprising interacting cells with one or more group-specific barcode sequence(s) or a group-specific combination of one or more barcode sequence(s): (b) a second barcoding of nucleic acid molecules contained in and/or attached to individual cells and/or nuclei from said group of cells/nuclei with a cell/nucleus-specific barcode sequence; and (c) sequencing of the barcoded nucleic acid sequences.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods are provided for a cam race for improving the longevity of an upper receiver of a direct gas operated firearm. The cam race provides a hardened slide face and a corner surface for a cam pin comprising a bolt carrier group of the firearm. The cam race is configured to be secured into a window disposed in the upper receiver. The window is surrounded by a counterbored area that receives a back plate of the cam race. The counterbored area and the thickness of the back plate cooperate such that the corner surface and the slide face are positioned to receive the cam pin during reciprocal movement of a bolt carrier group within the upper receiver. The cam race is retained in the upper receiver by fasteners that are tightened into threaded holes in the counterbored area.

Abstract: A device includes a multiple analyte sensor, a transimpedance amplifier, and a differential amplifier. The multiple analyte sensor includes a first working electrode, a second working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode. Each of the first working electrode and the second working electrode is configured to receive a signal indicative of a presence of a respective analyte. The counter electrode is a sum of the received signal of each of the first working electrode and the second working electrode. The transimpedance amplifier is configured to receive a first signal of the received signals from the first working electrode and a second signal of the received signals from the second working electrode. The transimpedance amplifier converts the received first signal and the received second signal to an output including a variable bias offset. The differential amplifier is configured to subtract the variable bias offset from the output.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to spatial detection of a nucleic acid, such as a genomic DNA or a RNA transcript, in a cell comprised in a tissue sample. The present disclosure provides methods for detecting and/or analyzing nucleic acids, such as chromatin or RNA transcripts, so as to obtain spatial information about the localization, distribution or expression of genes in a tissue sample. The present disclosure thus provides a process for performing “spatial transcriptomics” or “spatial genomics,” which enables the user to determine simultaneously the expression pattern, or the location/distribution pattern of the genes expressed or genes or genomic loci present in a single cell while retaining information related to the spatial location of the cell within the tissue architecture.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to methods and applications of single-cell barcoding and methods of nucleotide sequencing using composition comprising lipid-modified oligonucleotides.
