Abstract

Driven by the importance of urinary cell-free DNA (cfDNA) as cancer biomarkers, the effectiveness of cfDNA isolation from body fluids can impact clinical usability, especially for molecular diagnostic. However, cfDNA isolations are currently hampered by the dilution of small fragmented cfDNA in body fluids. In this work, we report the unique properties of nanowires assisting the isolation of urinary cfDNA based on specific chemical interactions, maximizing the effectiveness of the platform that could never be achieved with the conventional methods.
