Microfluidics-based High-throughput Circulating Tumor Cell Sorting and Single-cell Sequencing Technology

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are critical for the study of cancer progression and metastasis. This article presents a high-throughput, integrated protocol for CTC enrichment and single-CTC sequencing, improving capture efficiency and CTC purity while reducing contamination and sequencing costs, thereby advancing precision oncology research and clinical applications.
