Abstract: Provided are methods, devices, and kits for the isolation and enumeration of one or more components of interest within a liquid sample using microslit filter membranes. This disclosure relates to the enumeration of components within a sample of interest, and more particularly, the capture of such components by efficient isolation using microslit filters with high permeation capacity and precision molecular cut-off characteristics.
Abstract: The present invention is drawn to methods for facilitating fluid flow through the nanopores of membranes, i.e., through sub-micron pores. The present invention is also directed to one or more apparatus for such fluid flow, and for nanoporous membranes modified to facilitate such fluid flow.
