Defect Induced Semiconductor Probes for Ultrasensitive Detection of Metastatic Cancer
Priya Dharmalingam
Abstract:<p>Metastasis, a secondary tumor, behaves distinctly different from its state-of-origin. Aggressive metastasis comprises a diverse heterogeneous population; demonstrates varying molecular mechanisms. Hence, critical to investigate the heterogeneity of a metastatic cancer cell at a single-cell level. So far, available detection methods depend on bulk tumor samples lose the heterogeneity inherited in metastatic cancers, making them incapable of detection. Consequently, there exists no technique to detect m… Show more
