Microfluidics for antibody-independent separation of circulating tumor cells

Separation of circulating tumor cells (CTC) from the blood without using antibodies is a key challenge in the diagnosis of cancer. This article has reviewed few antibody-independent techniques governed by cell size on microfluidics platform. Microdevices employing micro-pore filters, dielectrophores...
