The invention discloses a single-
cell suspension purification method capable of maintaining representativeness of a
cell population and a kit, and belongs to the technical field of single-
cell separation. The method comprises the following steps that a cell sample to be separated and purified is resuspended in a centrifugal container through a
reagent B, then a
reagent A is added and evenly mixed, the adding amount of the
reagent A and the reagent B is adjusted so that the density of the suspension can be 1.08-1.15 g / ml, the reagent A is an
aqueous solution containing
iodixanol, and the reagent B is a DMEM culture medium containing 1-10% of FBS; and slowly laying PBS on the upper layer of the suspension, centrifuging, collecting living cells of an
interface layer, washing the obtained living cells, and re-suspending. According to the scheme, the single-cell suspension for single-cell
library construction can be purified under the conditions of low
equipment requirement, low cost and mild conditions, the cell
population representativeness of a sample can be reserved to the maximum extent while dead cells are removed, and no
adverse effect is generated on the single-cell
library construction process.
