Validation of the microfluidic capture/release system with CD34+ stem cells from whole blood. (A) CD34+ stem cells were successfully captured from whole blood. (B) CD34 fluorescent labeling of captured cells in microchannels indicated capture specificity greater than 90%. (C–D) The released CD34+ cells displayed greater than 90% viability as indicated by live/dead assay. (E) Post-release cultivation of CD34+ cells was possible with healthy cellular morphology after a day of culture.
