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 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 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.
摘要:
A device, system, and method for detecting or separating target molecules allowing efficient detection even when only a small amount of target molecules or target cells are included in a sample involving the use of a target molecule linkage portion, a signal production portion, and first and second separation portions.
摘要:
A metal nanowire including gold nanoclusters on the surface thereof for binding a target material and a method of binding the target material to the metal nanowire are provided.
摘要:
A hydrodynamic filter unit includes an inlet channel connected to a fluid chamber, into which a fluid including a target material is introduced, and a plurality of outlet channels connected to the fluid chamber, through which the fluid is discharged. A filtering method includes introducing a fluid including a target material into the hydrodynamic filter unit through the inlet channel, capturing the target material in the hydrodynamic filter unit, and discharging a remaining part of the fluid outside of the hydrodynamic filter unit through an outlet channel.
摘要:
Provided is a microfluidic valve, a method of manufacturing the microfluidic valve, and a microfluidic device that employs the microfluidic valve. The microfluidic valve includes a platform that includes two substrates combined facing each other; a channel having a first depth allowing a fluid to flow between the two substrates; a valve gap that is disposed on at least a region of the channel and has a second depth which is smaller than the first depth; and a valve plug that is disposed to fill the valve gap and is formed of a valve material made by mixing a phase change material, which is solid at room temperature, with a plurality of exothermic particles that emit an amount of heat sufficient to melt the phase change material by absorbing electromagnetic waves.
