Cutting edge CTC isolation
and analysis solutions
Cutting-edge CTC isolation and analysis solutions to accelerate your translational research and biopharmaceutical development
CTC Services for Biopharmaceutical & Translational Research
CTC Enumeration & Cytological Profiling
Automated isolation, enumeration and characterisation of CTCs from whole blood, with cytological analysis
CTC Cluster Detection & Analysis
Identification and analysis of CTC clusters and composition
Custom Biomarker Assay Development
Tailored molecular assays targeting specific biomarkers in CTCs e.g. qPCR, FISH, and bespoke assay development
Single-Cell & Bulk Molecular Analysis
Molecular profiling of single cell and bulk CTCs, including genomics, methylation, gene expression and mutation analysis
Functional Phenotyping & Metastasis Models
Functional assays that evaluate CTC behaviour and metastatic potential through dynamic cell-based systems like the TetherChip platform
Preclinical Models & Pilot Study Support
Flexible solutions for pilot studies supporting POC and early-stage data generation (CTCs, plasma, ctDNA and exosomes), including animal model research
Integrate CTC analysis seamlessly into GCP clinical research pipelines, ensuring high-quality, reproducible results. Ideal for early and late-stage clinical trials.
CTC isolation is followed by immobilisation of cells on slides, then immunostaining followed by automated imaging for CTC detection and enumeration.
