Extended live-cell barcoding approach for multiplexed mass cytometry.

ABSTRACT: Sample barcoding is essential in mass cytometry analysis, since it can eliminate potential procedural variations, enhance throughput, and allow simultaneous sample processing and acquisition. Sample pooling after prior surface staining termed live-cell barcoding is more desirable than intracellular barcoding, where samples are pooled after fixation and permeabilization, since it does not depend on fixation-sensitive antigenic epitopes. In live-cell barcoding, the general approach uses two tags per sample out of a pool of antibodies paired with five palladium (Pd) isotopes in order to preserve appreciable signal-to-noise ratios and achieve higher yields after sample deconvolution. The number of samples that can be pooled in an experiment using live-cell barcoding is limited, due to weak sig
