  • Publication number: 20250066843
    Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, methods, compositions, and kits for reducing non-specific noise-causing oligonucleotides in library preparations. Capture particles present in PCR reactions that are derived from partitions that did not contain a cell (e.g., noise capture particles) provide a significant source of non-specific nucleic acid and noise in single cell multiomics library preparations. In some embodiments of the methods provided herein, said noise capture particles are removed by a variety of approaches.

  • Publication number: 20240369545
    Abstract: Antibodies attached to oligonucleotides can bind to proteins of cells. These oligonucleotides can be released and captured by solid support oligonucleotides attached to solid supports. A detection oligonucleotide can hybridize to the captured oligonucleotides forming a sandwich of solid support oligonucleotide-captured oligonucleotide-detection oligonucleotide. The detection oligonucleotide and the captured oligonucleotides it binds to can be quantified by, for example, the fluorescent intensity of second detectable moieties (e.g., dye(s)) on the detection oligonucleotide. The identity of the protein quantified can be determined by, for example, the fluorescent intensity of first detectable moieties (e.g., dye(s)) on the solid support with the sandwich of solid support oligonucleotide-captured oligonucleotide-detection oligonucleotide.
