10X Genomics single-cell libraries

Our facility is equipped with a Chromium X instrument (10x Genomics) that enables profiling gene expression, cell-surface markers, and/or chromatin accessibility for hundreds to thousands of single cells in parallel. This microfluidic device partitions cells into emulsion droplets where cell-specific barcodes are associated with the cellular readout of interest.

We accept samples submitted as single cell (or single nucleus) suspensions and provide full-service support for all Chromium X assays. Our workflow includes single cell barcoding, library preparation, standard QC steps, and coordinating sequencing. We maintain inventory of the standard throughput 3’ gene expression reagents (and optional Feature Barcoding components) in the Genomics Facility. Our pricing for the 3’ gene expression assay includes the cost of the kits. Although we fully support other Chromium assays, we do not regularly keep stock of the necessary kits for these assays. Therefore, advanced planning and a consultation are necessary for these other assays and their pricing does not reflect the costs of the 10x kits. 

We also provide library construction for Visium samples submitted as amplified cDNA.

The listed prices below are **estimates** based on a typical project’s workflow following a single Chromium X run. For most assays, up to 8 samples can be submitted at one time for a single Chromium X run. Pricing will be adjusted on project-by-project basis. Assays or product extensions that involve additional library types (e.g. Feature Barcoding, V(D)J, ATAC), will increase the price based on the number of additional libraries prepared. 

The Genomics Facility will coordinate sequencing, which is not included in pricing below.

Please contact us for a consultation before initiating a single-cell genomics project.
Sample processing requires a reservation a minimum of 1 week, and ideally 2-3 weeks, in advance.
