Our non-invasive in vitro diagnostic medical device uses a microfiltration system that exploits the size of cancer cells, enabling efficient and intact capture of live circulating tumor cells (CTCs).
The MB kit can filter up to 6 ml of whole blood (2 x 3 ml) for molecular analysis and up to 12 ml of whole blood (2 x 6 ml) for cell culture.
For optimal results, CTC isolation should be performed within 4 hours of collection.
