single cell sequencing

How is Single Cell Sequencing Performed?

Single cell sequencing typically involves several steps:
- Isolation of individual cells using techniques like fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) or microfluidics.
- Amplification of the genetic material, since the DNA or RNA from a single cell is insufficient for sequencing.
- Library Preparation where the genetic material is prepared for sequencing.
- Sequencing using high-throughput technologies such as next-generation sequencing (NGS).
- Data Analysis to interpret the vast amount of data generated.
