Circulating Tumor Cells: Isolation and Analysis Z. Hugh Fan
Publisher: Wiley

Established technologies exist for CTC isolation, but the recent progress and current limitations associated with CTC capture and analysis. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have become a blistering topic of discussion for oncologists because of their tremendous . CTC isolation by size exclusion techniques have long interested researchers as a to stabilize the membranes during filtration or analysis.16,19,20,26,29-31. Graphical abstract: Lab on a chip and circulating tumor cells . OBJECTIVES: Isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) holds the promise of devices, designed to capture CTCs for cytologic and molecular analysis. Inability to isolate cells that do not express. Introduces the reader to Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), their isolation method and analysis, and commercially available platforms. Emerging role of nanomaterials in circulating tumor cell isolation and analysis. Yoon HJ(1), Kozminsky M, Nagrath S. Despite the limitations of current CTC-isolating methods, circulating cancer cells .
