The Chromium System is powered by Next GEM Technology
Our proprietary Next GEM technology fuels our Chromium System with an innovative reagent delivery system, set of algorithms and turnkey software analysis tools that enable the discovery of previously inaccessible genetic information at massive rate and scale.
The Next GEM technology is built on a new chip architecture that integrates seamlessly into existing solutions. This technology will enable future solutions and product improvements. The Next GEM technology combines new chips and reagents, and is currently offered for the following solutions:
- Chromium Single Cell Gene Expression
- Chromium Single Cell Immune Profiling
- Chromium Single Cell ATAC
Reagent Delivery System
All fragments produced within a partition share a common barcode
The Next GEM technology creates a unique reagent delivery system that partitions cells or nuclei and prepares sequencing libraries in parallel such that all fragments produced within a partition share a common barcode.
A simple workflow combines large partition numbers with a massively diverse barcode library to generate >100,000 barcode containing partitions in a matter of minutes.
Lab Integration
Seamless integration into existing lab workflows
Our Next GEM technology is a transformative technology that fits easily into existing lab infrastructure.
