About OneCell
ONECELL provides state-of-the-art equipment and guides users in their studies of gene expression. ONECELL allows the extraction of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) from tissues (Tissue Lyser Qiagen), their qualification and quantification (QuBit, Bioanalyse Tape Station Agilent), and their large-scale amplification by Real-time high-throughput PCR (Robot EpMotion 5073 Eppendorf, CFX 96 and 384 well BioRad, BioRad deepwell), as well as the generation of libraries for single-cell multiomics analyzes (Chromium Controller 10X Genomics). ONECELL guides the users for the experimental implementation, the use of the devices and the analysis of the PCR results, and ensures the quality control of the nucleic acids and the “Single Cell” libraries generated upstream of the sequencing. ONECELL also provides a custom service ranging from RNA and DNA qualification to PCR and analysis of results.

GEM generation
Microfluidics is a technology that manipulates fluids in microchannels. Thus, we can isolate each cell in a micro-droplet of oil containing reagents (polymerase, oligonucleotide, retrotranscriptase, etc.) and a particular bead allowing specific encoding of each transcript called GEM (Gel bead in EMulsion).
