At its core, the Yokogawa Single Cellome™ System SS2000 integrates Yokogawa's renowned spinning disk confocal microscopy technology with a sophisticated sampling mechanism. The SS2000 is a dual microlens spinning disk confocal microscope specifically designed to bridge the gap between imaging/microscopy and analytical techniques, such as mass spectrometry and sequencing, at the single-cell level. Researchers can observe and analyze dynamic cellular events, such as signal transduction, cellular migration, or membrane dynamics in adherent cells growing in an incubated environment. Once events of interest occur or target cells are located, the SS2000 can sample and collect them in vessels appropriate for analysis, such as PCR tubes and plates, all the while ensuring the preservation of spatial, morphological, and temporal information of the collected sample.
The SS2000 samples cellular material using micro-diameter capillaries of distinct sizes to accommodate for different cell sizes. The captured samples can be used in many different downstream analyses such as lipidomics, metabolomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and genomics. The single-cell sampling capability is crucial for studies in which the analysis of individual cells and their heterogeneity can yield valuable insights, such as cancer cell analyses, studies of rare cell types, or personalized medicine. The SS2000 enables researchers to collect and image multiple cells from the same culture, and does not require cell suspension, which could induce cellular stress. This innovative system offers unparalleled capabilities for researchers seeking to correlate cellular behaviors over time and/or cell-cell interactions with intricate structural details.
