A method of collecting and delivering single or precise numbers of cells to assess the feasibility of capturing very rare circulating tumor cells for human breast cancer diagnosis and monitoring was developed. A PMMA device was assembled with minimal assembly variation using passive alignment. Thermoplastic fusion bonding was optimized to yield minimal deformation of the microfluidic channel. UV modification and an anti-epithelial cell adhesion molecule (anti-EpCAM) functionalization process were used to generate capture surfaces and maximized by control experiment. Single or precise numbers of target cells were collected using a cell collecting capillary tube and a hemacytometer and delivered into the microchannel without any loss. Cells from one of the human breast cancer cell lines, the MCF-7 cell line (ATCC, Manassas, VA) which strongly overexpresses EpCAM, were successfully captured on the anti-EpCAM coated microchannel surfaces. Successful capture of early stage breast cancer cells in whole blood may be feasible with further optimization of the microchannel geometry and flow velocity through the microfluidic device.

A 3[Formula: see text]GHz class of an EF and [Formula: see text] shaped Microstrip Patch Antennas (MPAs) designed, simulated and fabricated has been presented in this paper. These simulated designs with appropriate parameters are implemented on the fabrication prototypes which have been validated with help of Agilent Microwave Analyzer (N99917A). These proposed MPAs and dielectric equivalent human breast model that have been validated using the different dielectric strengths of coupling mediums are presented. These MPAs and dielectric equivalent human breast model have been validated using the existing Debye test bed. The coverage and vector dimension of tumor tissues have been detected using the Monostatic radar approach in the EF and [Formula: see text] shaped MPAs-based existing Debye test bed setups. This paper conclude that Fractional Bandwidth (FBW) of EF shaped MPA is 26.79% greater than [Formula: see text] shaped MPA of 21.67%. Hence, the EF and [Formula: see text] shaped MPAs prototypes are suitable for breast cancer diagnosis systems. The prototypes’ depth, coverage and vector dimensions are presented in this paper.

We have reported the maturation of an intracisternal A-type particle in murine plasma cell tumor cultures and three human tumor cell cultures (rhabdomyosarcoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and osteogenic sarcoma) after IUDR-DMSO activation. In all of these studies the A-type particle seems to develop into a form with an electron dense nucleoid, presumably mature, which is also intracisternal. A similar intracisternal A-type particle has been described in leukemic guinea pigs. Although no biological activity has yet been demonstrated for these particles, on morphologic grounds, and by the manner in which they develop within the cell, they may represent members of the same family of viruses.
