Electrochemical microfluidic channel and method for isolating and detecting circulating tumor cells from blood of patients with cancer using the same

摘要

The present invention relates to an electrochemical microfluidic channel and a method for separating and detecting circulating tumor cells from the blood of a cancer patient using the electrochemical microfluidic channel. More particularly, the present invention relates to an electrochemical microfluidic channel, It provides a new analytical method that can quickly and easily separate cells with high efficiency and detect them with high sensitivity. In addition, the circulatory tumor cell separation and detection system based on the present invention has advantages of miniaturization and low manufacturing cost, and can contribute to early diagnosis of cancer and maximization of therapeutic effect by wide spread. In addition, biological characteristics of circulating tumor cells associated with cancer metastasis can be monitored to develop new cancer therapies and provide useful information to control cancer.
