However, these two essential factors are difficult to be achieved simultaneously. Methods: In order to reach the aforementioned goal, we integrated multiple strategies and technologies of staggered herringbone structure, nanowires’ substrate, peptides, enzymatic release, specific cell staining, and gene sequencing into microfluidic device and the sandwich structure peptide-silicon nanowires’ substrate was termed as Pe-SiNWS. Results: The Pe-SiNWS demonstrated excellent capture efficiency (95.6%) and high release efficiency (92.6%). The good purity (28.5%) and cell viability (93.5%) of CTCs could be obtained through specific capture and biological release by using Pe-SiNWS. The good purity of CTCs facilitated precise and quick biological analysis, and five types of KRAS mutation were detected in 16 pancreatic cancer patients but not in healthy donors. Conclusion: The results proved that the effective capture, minor damage release, and precise analysis of CTCs could be realized simultaneously by our novel strategy. The successful clinical application indicated that our work was anticipated to open up new opportunities for the design of CTC microfluidic device.
