Abstract

By integrating single cell trapping, identifying and in situ MDA (Multiple Displacement Amplification) gene amplifying in a single microchip, here we report a simple and cost-effective method to not only detect the existence of EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) mutation at single cell level, but also determine the abundances of diverse cells exhibiting different EGFR mutation types which were clinically proved to significantly affect the prognosis of EGFR-targeted therapy.
