Panomics’ Cancer Cell Isolation Kit provides a
simple, cost-effective method for isolating cancer
cells from biopsy samples. Cancer cells purified
using this technique can be used immediately for a
wide range of applications, including biomarker
identification, microarray and proteomic analysis.
The isolated cells are fully viable and can be used
to establish primary cell lines.
Purify any population of cancer cells
The ability to obtain uncontaminated cancer cell
samples is one of the major bottlenecks in the study
of tumor development and cancer biology. Tumor
biopsies from cancer patients and animal tumor
models often contain a heterogeneous population of
cells that include normal tissue, blood, and cancer
cells. This mixed population makes diagnosis and
valid experimental conclusions difficult to obtain
and interpret.
Typically, cancer cells are isolated from biopsy
samples via microdissection, a time-consuming
technique that requires costly equipment and
surgical precision. Unlike these techniques,
Panomics’ Cancer Cell Isolation Kit requires no
specialized skill set and no expensive equipment,
and can be used to isolate any cancer cell type.
