The future of personalized diagnostics commences on the single
cell level. Even high-end technologies like Next Generation Sequencing can
be improved if applied on pure single cell populations or on a single cell
level. The vast majority of these technologies need individual and
preferably undistorted cells for the analytical process. Thus, decisive
prerequisite for high-end analytics is to remove cells from their tissue
matrix as gently as possible. This can be accomplished by an enzyme-free,
fast and reproducible approach of generating pure and individual single
cells from tissue samples.
In this Webinar we explain how the TissueGrinder, which is compatible with
standard 50 ml centrifuge tubes and standard cell strainers processes tissue
samples in parallel, mechanically and enzyme-free. We show that without
enzymatic treatment viable single-cell yields match or exceed reference
enzymatic methods, while reducing processing time by at least 80%.
