Breakthrough In Lab-on-chip For Fast Cancer Detection And Therapy

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 - 18:14 in Health & Medicine

European researchers have achieved a major milestone in the development of a lab-on-chip for the detection and therapy evaluation of breast cancer. This is the first time that a lab-on-chip system including many complex sample preparation steps and multiplexed detection was conceived and is being implemented. All modules for sample preprocessing and detection are ready for further miniaturization and integration in a single lab-on-chip platform. The system will be clinically validated in a breast cancer therapy study in Oslo.
