Specifications include, but are not limited to: The University of Southern Mississippi is requesting purchase of a 10X Genomics Chromium iX Single Cell Immune Profiling system. The Chromium iX is a scalable microfluidic platform for immune profiling of up to 80,000 cells per run. The system is able to process thousands of micro-reactions in parallel, resulting in tens of thousands of uniquely addressable partitions. The Chromium iX uses patented Next GEM (Gel Beads-in-Emulsion) technology to individually barcode the samples to create short-read sequencer compatible libraries. The instrument can generate these uniquely labeled sample partitions in minutes, after which they can be pooled for downstream analysis pipelines. The GEM barcoded sample information can then be used to map sequencing reads back to their original single cell or single nucleus of origin. The 10X Chromium iX is capable of single cell gene expression, single cell immune profiling, single cell chromatin accessibility, and single cell fixed RNA profiling assays. Also included is a Chromium iX accessory kit and 12-month warranty.
