10x Genomics obtained fresh frozen Invasive Ductal Carcinoma breast tissue from BioIVT. The tissue was embedded and cryosectioned as described in Visium Spatial Protocols - Tissue Preparation Guide Demonstrated Protocol (CG000240 Rev A). Tissue sections of 10 µm thickness were placed on Visium Gene Expression Slides.
The tissue was AJCC/UICC Stage T2N0M0, ER positive, PR negative, Hercep Test 2+.
- Block ID: 1168993F
- Tumor Grade III
- Sex: Female (Age 60s)
- RIN Score: 9.26
The slide was cover-slipped and the H&E image acquired using a Nikon Ti2-E microscope with the following settings:
- Color camera
- 20X objective
- Numerical Aperture: 0.75
- Exposure: 10 ms
- Gain: 4.5X
The library was prepared following the Visium Spatial Gene Expression Reagent Kits User Guide (CG000239 Rev A).
