Overview
The ability to amplify DNA to yield a highly reproducible library from a single cell is now possible! The PicoPLEX™ WGA kit with patented technology* is designed and optimized for amplification of single copy genomic DNA starting with a single cell. The easy-to-use single tube protocol reduces handling errors, dramatically improves time to results and reduces background. PicoPLEX WGA Kit can be also be used with isolated gDNA amounts ranging from less than 15 pg to 50 ng. Accepted for use in array CGH analysis as well as q-PCR.
*Protected by US Patent 8,206,913 and EU pending applications
PicoPLEX™ WGA Kits are used and trusted by leading providers in the IVF community such as BlueGnome for pre-implantation genetic screening and diagnostics (PGS/PGD).
- Reproducible results from single cells (or <15 pg DNA)
- Superior reproducibility of allele representation
- Easy to use and automate
- Unambiguous results at all resolutions, microarray and PCR

Top 10 FAQs
Read all FAQ’s on PicoPLEX WGA Kit
1. What applications are recommended for PicoPLEX™ WGA Kit?
This kit is used for:
- Copy number variation (CNV) analysis: superior for oligonucleotide and BAC aCGH
- SNP genotyping
- Mutation detection by PCR
2. Is there a non-stick wash buffer that can be used for single cell wash prior to using PicoPLEX WGA Kit?
This has not been validated at Rubicon Genomics, but some customers have successfully used PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol; e.g. 0.1%) in PBS to wash/collect their cells. Additionally, your washing/collecting buffer (PBS) must be also Ca- and Mg-free.
3. Are there special requirements for flow sorting?
Yes, we strongly recommend not fixing, and using light scattering or phase contrast to sort or collect samples. Microscopic/visual confirmation of successfully sorted cells can be used to optimize sorting conditions.
4. What is the sample input volume for PicoPLEX WGA Kit?
This kit will accommodate a 5 μl sample input volume per reaction (with a maximum of 2.5 μl of cell & buffer carryover).
5. Can the product of PicoPLEX WGA Kit be taken straight to NGS?
No.
6. Does Rubicon Genomics have an NGS-ready kit for single cell applications?
Yes, PicoPLEX DNA-seq can be used with Illumina NGS platforms.
7. Sigma-Aldrich sells a GenomePlex WGA kit, is it the same technology as PicoPLEX WGA?
No, PicoPLEX uses different technology.
8. What is the expected genomic locus representation and Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) for PicoPLEX WGA products?
For reference purposes, see the data obtained from a third party in the table below.

9. Is the product of this technology single- or double-stranded?
The end product of PicoPLEX WGA is a mixture of single- and double-stranded DNA.
10. How rapid is PicoPLEX WGA Kit?
PicoPLEX WGA Kit lyses cells and amplifies the DNA to an end-point of 2 – 5 μg in < 3 hours.
