Detecting cancer cells in blood: the development of microchannel devices with microcone arrays

Chiba University
Peer-Reviewed Publication

Despite significant advancements in biosensing technologies, the early and accurate diagnosis of cancer remains challenging. In a recent study, researchers from Japan have developed a novel microfluidic device containing arrays of microcones to detect cancer cells in the blood. Their device leverages cancer-specific antibodies as coatings to accurately detect cancer cells. Furthermore, the microchannel device maintained a high capture efficiency of more than 90%, even at high flow rates.

Offering self-collection kits in routine GP appointments could prevent 1,000 women a year from developing cervical cancer

Queen Mary University of London
Peer-Reviewed Publication

Women who are overdue for cervical cancer screening are most likely to participate in screening when a self-sampling kit is offered by a healthcare professional as part of routine GP appointments, according to a new study led by Queen Mary University of London with King’s College London. Over half of the people offered an at-home test during an unrelated GP appointment returned the sample. If this approach were adopted across the NHS, it is estimated that as many as 1,000 women would be prevented from developing cervical cancer every year.
