UTA engineering research shows detection of single tumor cell in microfluidic channels
Cancer detectionThe key to fighting cancer in many cases is early detection. If detection comes at the cellular level, that could mean survival for many, many cancer patients. Now, a University of Texas at Arlington research team has demonstrated a new cancer cell detection method that tracks cellular behavior in real time using nanotextured walls. Samir Iqbal, an associate professor in the Electrical Engineering Department , is the principal investigator on the paper titled, “Effects of Nanotexture on Electrical Profiling of Single Tumor Cell and Detection of
