(A) The capture efficiency as a function of the channel depth. The capture efficiency was calculated by dividing the number of the target cells captured by the number of the target cells introduced into the device. (B) The purity of cells captured as a function of the channel depth. The purity was calculated by dividing the number of the target cells captured by the number of both target and control cells captured. The flow rate is 600 nL/s for both (A) and (B). (C) The capture efficiency as a function of the flow rate. (D) The purity of cells captured as a function of the flow rate. The channel depth is 40 μm for (C) and (D). In all experiments, CEM cells were used the target cells and Ramos Cells as the control. The error bars represent one standard deviation of 3 repeat experiments.
