Learn advanced liquid biopsy techniques for cancer research through this 49-minute webinar presented by Yoon-Tae Kang, PhD and Abiodun Bodunrin, PhD. Discover how to perform dual-isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from a single liquid biopsy sample to gain multi-dimensional insights into cancer heterogeneity. Explore a streamlined EGFR mutation detection workflow using non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as a case study, incorporating the Genesis Cell Isolation System and Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCRâ„¢) technology. Master optimized blood component separation and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) enrichment steps that enable both CTC capture and recovery for downstream molecular assays. Understand how ddPCR can be used to interrogate specific loci aberrations within both ctDNA and CTC total DNA, providing comprehensive molecular profiling capabilities from a single sample.
