10x Genomics and Hamilton Company Partner to Enable Single Cell Workflow Automation
PLEASANTON, Calif., Nov. 20, 2024 - 10x Genomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: TXG), a leader in single cell and spatial biology, and Hamilton Company, a leading global manufacturer of laboratory automation technology, today announced a collaborative agreement to develop an automated, large-scale, high-throughput solution for single cell experiments.
The agreement integrates 10x Genomics' Chromium GEM-X Universal 3' and 5' gene expression library preparation kits with Hamilton's NGS STAR Assay Ready Workstation, a preconfigured liquid handling platform equipped with Hamilton's industry-leading automated technologies. This collaboration is designed to simplify single cell library preparation workflows, allowing researchers to save time, analyze more complex datasets, and draw conclusions faster.
With both the NGS STAR and 10x Genomics' Chromium instruments already installed in many laboratories and facilities around the world, researchers will be able to seamlessly scale their existing workflows to efficiently process up to 96 single cell samples at one time.
"Automation has the potential to transform the way researchers approach large-scale single cell studies," said Brooke Murphy, VP of Chromium Marketing at 10x Genomics. "By integrating our GEM-X library preparation kits with Hamilton's advanced liquid handling platform, this collaboration can enable scientists to accelerate their discoveries, streamline complex workflows and confidently scale to tackle groundbreaking research at unprecedented levels."
"We are thrilled to bring another important and vital solution to the market with our great partners at 10x Genomics," said Hamilton CEO, Matt Hamilton. "Our objective was simple - bring the best automation and science together so that researchers can use their skills in the best way possible. This collaboration achieves that mission, and I look forward to hearing the success stories in the years to come."
The 10x Genomics automation-friendly library preparation kit is currently commercially available. The Hamilton NGS Star method for library preparation is expected to launch in early 2025.
