Circulating Tumor Cell Isolation by Size Selective Tagging in a Microfluidic Device
Exclusively Licensed
Invention type: Technology
/
Case number: #16239
Isolating or identifying a cell based on a physical property of said cell can include providing a cell suspension; passing said suspension through a microfluidic channel that includes a constriction; passing the cell suspension through the constriction; and, contacting said cell suspension solution with a compound. The constriction can be sized to preferentially deform a relatively larger cell compared to a relatively smaller cell.
