CD Bioparticles

Magnetic Bead Tumor Single-Cell Sequencing Platform Development

CD Bioparticles specializes in developing innovative Magnetic Bead Tumor Single-Cell Sequencing Platforms to revolutionize cancer research and clinical diagnostics. Our customized solutions leverage magnetic bead technology for high-efficiency single-cell isolation, enabling precise genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic analysis of tumor heterogeneity. By partnering with us, researchers and diagnostic developers can accelerate discoveries in tumor biology, biomarker identification, and therapeutic targeting.

Introductions

Tumors are highly heterogeneous ecosystems, where subpopulations of cells drive malignancy, metastasis, and therapy resistance. Traditional bulk sequencing methods mask this diversity, limiting insights into critical cellular subtypes. CD Bioparticles addresses this challenge by developing integrated platforms that combine gentle, high-specificity magnetic bead-based cell sorting with downstream single-cell sequencing workflows. Our technology ensures the isolation of rare tumor cells (e.g., circulating tumor cells, cancer stem cells) with minimal stress, preserving molecular integrity for robust sequencing data.

Technology Overview

Our platform integrates advanced magnetic bead systems with optimized single-cell sequencing protocols to deliver end-to-end solutions:

1. Functionalized Magnetic Beads: Tailored with antibodies or ligands targeting tumor-specific markers (e.g., EpCAM, CD45-, EGFR) for highly specific cell capture.

2. Microfluidic Single-Cell Isolation: Bead-bound cells are efficiently sorted into microwells or droplets using automated systems, ensuring high viability and purity.

3. Seamless Sequencing Integration: Isolated cells are directly compatible with leading single-cell sequencing technologies (e.g., 10x Genomics, scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq).

4. Bioinformatic Support: Custom pipelines for analyzing sequencing data, including clustering, trajectory inference, and biomarker discovery.

Our Services

CD Bioparticles offers comprehensive, end-to-end platform development services, tailored to your specific tumor research needs:

1. Custom Magnetic Bead Development

  • Design of tumor-specific magnetic beads (size, surface chemistry, ligand selection) based on target markers (e.g., cell surface antigens, intracellular proteins) and sample type.
  • Conjugation of capture ligands (monoclonal antibodies, aptamers, peptides) with optimized protocols to ensure high binding specificity and cell recovery.

2. Sample Preparation & Sorting Optimization

  • Optimization of sample dissociation, bead-cell incubation conditions (time, temperature, ratio), and magnetic separation parameters to maximize tumor cell purity and viability.
  • Evaluation of sorting performance with complex samples (e.g., tumor tissue homogenates, CTC-enriched blood) to minimize non-tumor cell contamination.

3. Platform Integration & Sequencing Adaptation

  • Integration of magnetic bead sorting with single-cell capture, lysis, and library preparation into a unified workflow.
  • Validation of compatibility with your preferred sequencing platform (10x Genomics, BD Rhapsody, etc.) through pilot experiments and data quality assessment.

4. Platform Validation & Technical Support

  • Comprehensive performance validation: cell recovery rate, purity, viability, nucleic acid integrity, and sequencing data quality (mapping rate, gene detection, UMI complexity).
  • Dedicated technical teams provide troubleshooting, protocol refinement, and training for platform operation and data interpretation.

Applications

Our Magnetic Bead Tumor Single-Cell Sequencing Platform is versatile, supporting key oncology research and translational applications:

  • Tumor Heterogeneity Analysis: Dissection of clonal diversity within tumors, identification of dominant and rare subpopulations, and tracking of clonal evolution during treatment.
  • Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC) Sequencing: Enrichment and profiling of rare CTCs from peripheral blood for non-invasive cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring.
  • Cancer Stem Cell (CSC) Research: Isolation and characterization of CSCs to study self-renewal, differentiation, and drug resistance mechanisms.
