Abstract: A method for detecting cancer uses a first detection reagent containing a first adsorbent, which is physically adsorbed by biomedical sample. The first adsorbent comprises a long-chain ester wax containing 16-46 carbon atoms or a long-chain alkane wax containing 21-30 carbon atoms and a concentration of the first adsorbent is between 5% to 10% w/w. The present invention could be widely applied for detecting various cancers based on the differential physisorption of adsorbent. The present invention can provide a method for rapidly and non-invasively detecting cancers.

Abstract: A method for detecting cancer includes providing a biomedical sample, performing a first adsorption step, performing a first desorption step, and performing a first discrimination step. The first adsorbing step includes immersing the biomedical sample into a first detection reagent having a first adsorbent that adsorbs onto the biomedical sample. The first desorption step includes immersing the biomedical sample into a first desorbing agent for a first period of time. The first discrimination step includes measuring an amount residual of first adsorbent adsorbed on the biomedical sample for identifying distribution of cancer cells within the biomedical sample. The present invention could be widely applied for detecting various cancers based on the differential physisorption of adsorbent. The present invention can provide a method for rapidly and non-invasively detecting cancers.
