Microbes are ubiquitous and impact virtually the entire biosphere including human body, plant, soil and ocean. Can we use them to diagnose and predict the state of ecosystem such as human health? A te...

Photosynthetic microalgae are of interest as potential feedstock for fuels because of their high yield of oil in cell, high growth rate, tolerance of diverse environmental conditions and capability to...

Metagenomics method directly sequences and dynamically analyses taxonomic and functional information of microbial communities, which could potentially optimize bio-processes behind some key bioenergy ...

The most commonly used method for single cell isolation is Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) currently. However, it needs fluorescence labeling normally, and only obtains limited phenotypes, ...

Single-Cell Center has been partnered with NVIDIA to establish a Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) Research Center (CRC) on November 5, 2013. This CRC is based on the institute’s vision, qua...

Microalgae play an important role in biological carbon capture and primary biomass production via photosynthesis. Moreover, certain microalgae can serve as potential producers of biodiesel and other r...

The first Raman-Activated Cell Sorter (RACS) model instrument, called RACS-1, has been approved by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China (MoST)and now in full operation inQingdao,China. This...

Lignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant biopolymers on earth, yet its recalcitrance to enzymatic hydrolysis has hampered its exploitation for renewable bioenergy and biomaterials. Cellulolytic ba...
