Learn more about Laser Capture Microdissection: http://www.lifetechnologies.com/us/en... Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is an automated sample preparation technique that enables isolation of specific cells from a mixed population under microscopic visualization. This technique of isolating a pure sample from a heterogeneous mixture allows for more efficient and accurate results with downstream microgenomics applications such as next-generation sequencing, Sanger sequencing, PCR, and proteomics. The isolation and characterization of specific cells from a heterogeneous cell population is important for the analysis of gene expression because the differences between various cell types present within normal tissues have significant effects on gene expression analysis. In case you aren’t aware of what Arcturus® Laser Capture Microdissection can do, Joseph Pham took some time to explain the system from the exhibit hall floor at the recent American Society for Human Genetics. And if you’d like to hear how Dr. Emanuel ‘Chip’ Petricoin uses the Arcturus® LCM System in his work, we conducted a #LabChat interview accessible here:    • TCGA Samples + Laser Capture Microdissecti...
