Image: A nanoscale Velcro-like device captures and releases tumor cells that have broken away from primary tumors and are circulating in the bloodstream. This new nanotechnology could be used for cancer diagnosis and to give insight into the mechanisms of how cancer spreads throughout the body (Photo courtesy of the RIKEN Advanced Science Institute).

Novel NanoVelcro Chip Isolates Intact Circulating Tumor Cells for Diagnostic Testing

An international team of bioengineers has developed a novel "nanoVelcro" device that removes circulating tumor cells from the blood without damaging them.  More...
