Work flow of spheroid isolation process using the device. Top panel cell suspension flows into the chip. Spheroids were captured by the trapping units. Single cells were not trapped by the tripping units as the opening is big enough for single cells to flow through. Middle panel the chip was washed with cell culture media to remove debris and excessive cells. Bottom panel spheroids were released from the chip through the bigger opening of the trap by reversing the fluid flow
