Immunoengineered magnetic-quantum dot nanobead system for the isolation and detection of circulating tumor cells

Abstract Background Highly efficient capture and detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) remain elusive mainly because of their extremely low concentration in patients’ peripheral blood. Methods We present an approach for the simultaneous capturing, isolation, and detection of CTCs using an immu...
