Abstract: A method of analyzing single biological particles, such as cells or nuclei, that maintains the single biological particles in a state of relative isolation during decrosslinking and subsequent processing is provided. In the case of cells, the method prevents cellular analytes from each individual cell from leaving the cell site and diffusing toward adjacent cells, while permitting transmission of a decrosslinking agent, followed by processing of the cellular analytes from the individual cells by barcoding and/or imaging of the cellular analytes.

Abstract: The facility comprises a tire-building station that is configured to form an uncured tire on a core. A curing station is configured to cure the assembly formed by the core and the uncured tire so as to obtain a cured annular tire. An extraction station is configured to separate, after the curing operation, the cured tire from the core. The curing station has a first, heating, thermal source which presses against the exchange face of the core for the curing operation and is then dissociated from the core and remains in the curing station in order to leave the exchange face free again when the core and the cured tire are transferred to the extraction station so that a second, refrigerating, thermal source of the extraction station takes the place of the first thermal source in contact with the exchange face of the core so as to cool the core.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, systems, and devices for polynucleotide processing and analyte characterization. Such polynucleotide processing may be useful for a variety of applications, including analyte characterization by polynucleotide sequencing. The compositions, methods, systems, and devices disclosed herein generally describe barcoded oligonucleotides, which can be bound to a bead, such as a gel bead, useful for characterizing one or more analytes including, for example, protein (e.g., cell surface or intracellular proteins), genomic DNA, and RNA (e.g., mRNA or CRISPR guide RNAs). Also described herein, are barcoded labelling agents and oligonucleotide molecules useful for “tagging” analytes for characterization.

Abstract: Devices, kits, and their methods of use for lysing and/or purifying biological particles, e.g., nuclei are provided. One or more thixotropic layers can be employed in a vessel to purify biological particles. A device with sharp features may be employed to lyse biological particles or the contents thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and systems for measuring secreted cytokines or other analytes from single cells. The methods disclosed herein include the use of analyte-specific and/or barcoded binding agents (e.g., antibodies) and beads in partitions (e.g., droplets or wells) to measure such analytes on a single cell basis. Further described herein are methods comprising the use of hydrogel-encapsulated cells (e.g., cell beads) to measure secreted and/or cellular analytes from single cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, systems, and compositions for parallel processing of nucleic acid samples.
