November 6, 2024

Single-cell genomics made simple, scalable, and seamless

DENVER, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — CS Genetics, a leader in next-generation single-cell genomics, today announced the launch of SimpleCell™ 3′ Gene Expression kits, its first commercial offering designed for accessible and scalable single-cell transcriptomics.

The SimpleCell™ platform leverages Kinetic Confinement – a groundbreaking molecular process – to deliver the most accessible, instrument-free, and scalable solution in single-cell genomics.

Luke Edelman, Founder and Chief Technology Officer at CS Genetics, remarked, “After several years of development, we are so excited to be releasing our first SimpleCell™️ products commercially. Single cell is a very important and impactful modality for biological measurement, and we feel strongly that a diverse ecosystem of technology platforms – now including Kinetic Confinement and SimpleCell™️ – is good for the field and for the cadence of discovery. It’s a privilege to be sharing our work with the scientific community, and we are totally stoked to see how customers start using it.”

Key features of the SimpleCell™️ 3′ Gene Expression kits include:

Workflow: Single-day cells-to-sequencer workflow, using only standard lab equipment and pipettingCost-effectiveness: Under $500 per sample, regardless of experiment scale or purchase volumeSample compatibility: Supports blood/PBMCs, cell lines, disaggregated solid tissues, and more

The company is presenting details about Kinetic Confinement technology and the SimpleCell™️ product line at the 2024 Annual Meeting of the American Society for Human Genetics in Denver. Visit CS Genetics at booth 402 and join the SimpleCell™ CoLab talk on Wednesday, November 6, at 4:00 PM in Theater 3 to explore the future of single-cell genomics.

Charlly Kao, Principal Scientist at the Center for Applied Genomics (CAG) at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and an early SimpleCell™️ customer remarked, “We’ve been eagerly waiting for something like SimpleCell™️ that can perform single-cell transcriptome profiling in a flexible, instrument-free, and simple-to-use workflow at a more attractive price point. Our evaluation of the platform showed it was able to successfully profile sample types at the single-cell level within our biorepository, and we now look forward to adopting SimpleCell™️ more broadly both for our own research and as a shared tool with researchers across our ecosystem as a service offering through the CAG Core.”

Hákon Hákonarson, Director of the Center for Applied Genomics at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and Professor of Pediatrics at the Perelman School of Medicine, remarked, “Kinetic Confinement and the SimpleCell™️ platform are timely new additions to the single cell universe. As a translational research facility with access to a very large number of clinical specimens, we are particularly excited about the opportunities presented by the platform to enable significantly larger-scale single cell studies than has been realistically possible with other tools.”

Yuriy Alekseyev, director of the Single Cell and NGS core laboratory at the Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, commented, “In the core lab setting, we see researchers who need more affordable, flexible, and easy-to-use options for single cell analysis. SimpleCell™️ checks these boxes well. It’s simple to set up, cost-effective, and a welcome addition for users who’ve been looking for a platform that doesn’t require a huge learning curve or large costs for each experiment. Even our less-experienced technician performed this protocol for the first time and obtained great results.”

The SimpleCell™️ 3′ Gene Expression kits are available in 8-sample and 16-sample sizes. Now accepting orders for shipment across the U.S., U.K., Europe, and select global regions. Visit www.csgenetics.com to learn more or place an order.

Specified Technologies Inc. Unveils Firestop Clash Management and Locator Updates

Published

6 hours ago

November 23, 2024

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.
