The fact that all these processes are fully automated increases the reliability and reproducibility of the assay by preventing human errors and cell loss due to manual steps. Furthermore, the collected cells are compatible with traditional molecular biology techniques and next-generation technologies, enabling the performance of molecular analysis to assess the genetic characteristics of the captured CTCs.
