G4X Platform and Ecosystem
Transforming Spatial Multiomics with Precision, Scalability and Flexibility

Tissue Transfer
Novel and Scalable Tissue Handling Methods
- Controlled tissue handling - Minimizing the impact on valuable FFPE tissue while maximizing imaging area usage.
- Reduction in tissue waste - Eliminates the need to score blocks or use tumor micro-arrays (TMAs).
- Efficient storage and transfer of tissues- Users can store tissue on hydrogel pads after sectioning or on slides after transfer.
- User-friendly, high-volume operation- Enables simple transfer of a full run of 128 samples in as little as 3 hours.

Chemistry and workflow
Innovative Chemistry, Optimized for FFPE
- Efficient Capture in FFPE Samples - High affinity, short probes enable effective RNA capture from fragmented archived clinical sample types.
- High Sensitivity for RNA and Protein Detection- Amplification-based detection of padlock probes on target RNA regions or protein.
- Proprietary Methods for Direct Sequencing - Purpose-built technology to enable gap-fill sequencing of variable RNA sequences directly in cells, in tissues (coming soon).
- Streamlined Wet Lab Workflow - Simplified 3-day workflow enabled by our purposefully-designed workflow suite.

System Operations
Flexible, High-Throughput System Operations
- Established Instrument- The G4X has a field-matured base platform with years of real-world use and customer insights as a sequencer.
- High-Speed Imaging System- Operating at over 2 billion pixels per second, G4X imaging occurs in a single day, enabling multiple runs per week.
- Flexible-High Throughput Run Capacity - 40 cm2 of tissue imaging, divided across 4 flow cells allows users to adapt the run size to their project needs.
- Independent Lanes - Each flow cell has 2 or 4 fluidically independent lanes, allowing users to run up to 16 panels per run.

Analysis
Powerful Single-Cell Analysis Suite
- Integrated Single-Cell Analysis: The G4X performs base calling, transcript identification, clustering and cell segmentation for robust single-cell results and run QC.
- Multiomic Results Viewer: A flexible web-based platform allows for layering fH&E images, protein images, and transcript localization at subcellular resolution.
- Plug-and-Play with 3rd-Party Platforms- Standard spatial file outputs empower users to leverage their preferred open-source or commercial secondary analysis tools for deeper insights

Panels
Modular, Application-Specific Panels
- Well-Curated and Performance-Optimized - Expert-selected gene sets to ensure each panel is precisely curated to characterize tissue-immune interaction and accurate cell typing.
- Modular Design for Versatility - The flexible architecture allows researchers to combine our refined core immune panel with disease-specific modules tailored to their project needs.
- Customizable for Targeted Insights - Easily add up to 25 genes to a panel, create a new 100-gene module, or create fully customized 350-gene panels to meet specific research goals.

1Spatial runtime does not include analysis time since spatial analysis occurs after run completion. Depending on setup, analysis can be offloaded so the system can be initiated on consecutive days for near-continuous operation. If analysis is not offloaded, run time depends on number of flow cells and configurations being run, but should not exceed 3 days for fully-loaded runs.
