Single cell SDS-PAGE!

 


Wait. SDS-PAGE has enough sensitivity for single cell proteomics?  Hmmmm.... It probably does....at least for high concentration band recognition...and it would provide some level of proteoform resolution. 

I'll be honest, I first thought "...that sounds slow and silly..." but the more I think about it the more I like having this around as a concept - or even a first pass.

They use the migration patterns for their output and then use statistics that can tell different single cancer cells apart by those patterns....

I don't know about the 3D imaging part, and it is a preprint, so grain of salt over your shoulder or whatever, but I'm definitely going to think about this on my commute.
