Cell fixation and preservation for droplet-based single-cell transcriptomics

Abstract Background Recent developments in droplet-based microfluidics allow the transcriptional profiling of thousands of individual cells in a quantitative, highly parallel and cost-effective way. A critical, often limiting step is the preparation of cells in an unperturbed state, not altered by s...
