제목 Exosome isolation and measurement system using magnetic separation in microfluidics for cancer diagnosis
초록 Exosomes have several substances in it that are higly associated with human diseases. However, there is small amounts of disease-derived exosomes exist in the body fluid, so isolating them efficiently is a important challenge. Conventional separation methods using density or size require pre-treatment or complex machine and have low specificity. The problem was overcome by using a different sizes of magnetic nanocluster (MNCs), having a property of varying magnetization according to size. Using the appropriate antibodies, small MNCs were attached to normal exosomes, while large MNCs capture the disease-derived exosomes. Thereafter, the exosomes captured by MNCs were flowed into the microfluidic chip made by lithography, and have different attraction to the magnet by the degree of magnetization, so they are separated and go out to different outlets. In conclusion, our exosome isolation system has high specificity and can have potentially to rapid diagnosis and monitoring of diseases.
