Capture and stimulated release of circulating tumor cells on polymer-grafted silicon nanostructures.
...Published in Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
A platform for capture and release of circulating tumor cells is demonstrated by utilizing polymer grafted silicon nanowires. In this platform, integration of ligand-receptor recognition, nanostructure amplification, and thermal responsive polymers enables a highly efficient and selective capture of cancer cells. Subsequently, these captured cells ...
