    Abstract: The present disclosure in some aspects relates to methods and compositions for processing a biological sample, including methods and compositions for targeted shrinking and expansion of biomolecules in a biological sample for in situ analysis. In some aspects, a polymer is conjugated with a probe or product thereof (e.g., rolling circle amplification products) in the biological sample, and the polymer conjugate may be shrunk or expanded. In some aspects, a size-controllable polymer network is used to shrink or expand the biomolecules in the biological sample. Targeted shrinking can create more space for analyzing more biomolecules at the same time inside a confined space within the sample and expand the space between adjacent probes or products thereof at locations in the sample.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for making a hydrogel comprising a cell, cell nucleus, or one or more components derived from a cell or cell nucleus. A method for making a hydrogel may comprise providing a cell or cell nucleus, a first polymer, wherein the first polymer comprises a plurality of first crosslink precursors, each of the plurality of first crosslink precursors comprising an azide group; providing a second polymer, wherein the second polymer comprises a plurality of second crosslink precursors, each of the plurality of second crosslink precursors comprising an alkyne group; and crosslinking the first polymer and the second polymer via a reaction between a first section of the first crosslink precursors and a second section of the second crosslink precursors, thereby providing the hydrogel comprising the cell or cell nucleus.
