Welcome to the BBSRC Single Cell Sequencing Platform
The main role of this platform is to provide state of art technologies to aid academic and industrial partners in a wide range of single cell sequencing applications.
Housed in the Biomolecular Sciences building at North Haugh, this platform consists of:
- Agilent 4200 TapeStation System and Qubit fluorometer- for quality control of sequencing libraries and samples.
- 10X Genomics Chromium X Controller – for single cell sorting and barcoding. Chromium X – BBSRC Single Cell Sequencing Platform (st-andrews.ac.uk)
- Illumina NextSeq1000 – for generation of DNA and RNA sequencing data. Illumina NextSeq 1000 – BBSRC Single Cell Sequencing Platform (st-andrews.ac.uk)

What is Next Generation Sequencing?
Technology that elevated and accelerated genetic research since Sanger Sequencing method was developed.
Novel fluorescent-based sequencing method.
NGS allows cost effective, high speed and automated nucleotide sequence determination with just a small sample.
What is Single Cell Sequencing?
Single-cell sequencing is an elevation to NGS where single cell assay techniques are combined with fluorescence based sequencing for insight into differences within typically genetically undistinguishable cellular populations. Here, genetic material from cells can be sequenced to allow genomic, transcriptomic or multi-omic profiling at single cell level.
