Abstract excerpt
Efficient isolation and genetic analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from cancer patients' blood is a critical step for clinical applications using CTCs. Here, we report a novel CTC-isolation method and subsequent genetic analysis. CTCs from the blood were complexed with magnetic beads coated with antibodies against the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and separated vertically on a density-gradient...
