Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies of tumor masses require relatively pure populations of tumor cells. Substantial contamination by stromal cells, however, usually prevents detailed analysis of tumor cells. To improve the accuracy of gene analysis of tumor cells, a crypt isolation technique was introduced to separa...
