Microfluidics for minute DNA sample analysis: open challenges for genetic testing of cell-free circulating DNA in blood plasma
Genetic testing based on the analysis of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in body fluids, especially blood plasma, is raising interest for the management and follow-up of many diseases, including cancer. Because the concentration of cfDNA is low and its composition mostly degraded, this material ca...
