Abstract
The Visium CytAssist Spatial Gene Expression workflow assays RNA levels in intact formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. It uses probes targeting the whole transcriptome. Each Visium CytAssist Spatial Gene Expression Slide contains Capture Areas with barcoded spots that include oligonucleotides required to capture gene expression probes.

Tissue sections are processed with Visium Spatial Gene Expression assay performed by the Single Cell Biology Core at The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine.

Library concentration was quantified using a Tapestation High Sensitivity DNA ScreenTape (Agilent) and fluorometry (Thermofisher Qubit) and verified via KAPA qPCR.
Library Sequencing
Library Sequencing
Libraries were pooled for sequencing on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 200 cycle flow cell using a 28-10-10-90 read configuration, targeting 100,000 read pairs per spot covered by tissue.
