| 摘要 |
Methods and systems disclosed in the present application include membrane-like filters and methods and systems that employ these membrane-like filters to isolate circulating tumor cells and other abnormal cells from biological fluids, such as blood. The disclosed methods and systems use membrane-like filters that include a pattern or array of small, tapered apertures fabricated within a relatively thin but mechanically robust polymeric material that resists accumulation of biological-solution components and clogging during filtration of biological solutions. |
