摘要:
A cell counter system includes an inlet via which a fluid containing a plurality of cells inflows; a channel in which the fluid flows; a valve unit, which controls flow of the fluid in the channel; an electrode unit, which is arranged in the channel for measuring impedance for counting a number of the plurality of cells; and an outlet, which is connected to the channel to drain the fluid.
摘要:
A method of detecting a cancer stem cell or circulating tumor cell that has undergone epithelial-mesenchymal transition, comprising determining the level of caveolin-1 expressed by a sample cell, and comparing the level of caveolin-1 expressed by the sample cell to a control, wherein higher expression of caveolin-1 by the sample cell indicates that the sample cell is a cancer cell, as well as a method of detecting cancer or metastasis in a subject, and related methods and compositions.
摘要:
A fluid controlling apparatus including an inlet through which a fluid is introduced, a channel portion connected to the inlet, an outlet that is connected to the channel portion and through which the fluid is discharged, and at least one fluid resisting portion disposed between the inlet and the outlet, as well as a filter and a biochip including the fluid controlling apparatus.
摘要:
A fluid controlling apparatus including at least one sample chamber for holding a fluid containing target materials; a cleaning chamber for holding a cleaning solution; a first multi-port connected to the at least one sample chamber through a first channel and connected to the cleaning chamber through a second channel; a filter portion, connected to the first multi-port through a third channel, for filtering the target materials; and a first pump, connected to the filter portion, for applying a pressure; and a method of controlling a fluid using the fluid controlling apparatus, which comprises passing the fluid containing the target materials from the at least one sample chamber to the filter portion; and cleaning a path of the fluid by passing the cleaning solution through the path.
