BD Rhapsody™ Targeted mRNA Kits

Utilize targeted assays to focus on genes of interest and save on sequencing costs

Overview

The BD Rhapsody™ Targeted mRNA Kits provide the ability to focus on specific targets for single-cell research using the BD Rhapsody™ Single-Cell Analysis System. Drawing from BD Biosciences’ 45+ years of expertise in immunology, our targeted kits comprise markers of interest to researchers. Designed to work with BD^®AbSeq and BD^® Single-Cell Multiplexing Kits, our targeted assays enable you to perform multiomic analyses while focusing on key genes of interest.

We offer four different gene panels to support targeted analyses:

Human Immune Response Targeted Panel (Features slide 1)

Mouse Immune Response Targeted Panel (Features slide 2)

Onco-BC Targeted Panel (Features slide 3)

Human T-Cell Targeted Panel (Features slide 4)

Features

The BD Rhapsody™ Human Immune Response Targeted Panel enables cost-efficient cellular phenotyping of single cells, saves sequencing costs and analysis time, and allows better utilization of resources

Utilizes multiplex PCR to detect 399 genes chosen for profiling human immune cells
Focuses on genes relevant to phenotyping human immune cells
Includes genes involved in cytokine and chemokine secretion and interleukin signaling; and transcription factors involved in cell differentiation
and maturation
Allows customization by adding up to 100 user-defined genes
Specifically amplifies transcripts most relevant to immune-cell function rather than constitutively expressed ribosomal genes
Requires significantly fewer reads and improves assay efficiency

The BD Rhapsody™ Onco-BC Targeted Panel is customizable and was created via collaborations with clinical oncologists

Utilizes multiplex PCR to detect 389 genes chosen for profiling human cancer-associated genes
Focuses on human breast cancer biology and includes genes with known involvement in cancer progression, proliferation, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer stem cells
Aids molecular subtyping of breast cancer cells with the inclusion of PAM50 genes
Enables comprehensive surveys of the complex tumor microenvironment due to the inclusion of stromal cell markers and immunophenotyping
Requires dramatically fewer reads and reduces time and sequencing costs
