Abstract: The invention discloses a method for preparing an anticorrosive surface layer of a metal material in a marine environment by laser, which belongs to the technical field of laser processing. First, the laser cladding method is used to prepare a cladding surface layer on the surface of the metal material that is not easy to undergo chemical substitution reaction with the chlorides (NaCl, MgCl2 , CaCl2 etc.) in the seawater. Then, on the surface of the cladding surface layer, ultrafast laser processing is used to form a surface layer with a wetting angle (and water) greater than 90 degrees and with hydrophobic characteristics. The anti-corrosion surface layer obtained by the invention has hydrophobic properties, the high humidity and high salt water vapor and marine organisms in the marine environment are not easy to adhere, and the anti-corrosion surface layer is stable in salt water resistance, and is not easy to undergo chemical substitution reaction with chlorides in seawater (NaCl, MgCl2 , CaCl2 etc.

Abstract: Provided are methods and compositions for isolating and detecting rare cells from a biological sample containing other types of cells, particularly including debulking that uses a microfabricated filter for filtering samples. The enriched rare cells can be used in a downstream process such as identification, characterization or growth in culture, or in other ways. Also included is a method of determining tumor aggressiveness or the number or proportion of cancer cells in the enriched sample by detecting telomerase activity, nucleic acid or expression after enrichment of rare cells. Also provided is an efficient, rapid method to specifically remove red and white blood cells from a biological sample containing at least one of the cell types, leading to enrichment of rare target cells including circulating tumor (CTC), stromal, mesenchymal, endothelial, fetal, stem, or non-hematopoietic cells et cetera from a blood sample.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for isolating and detecting rare cells from a biological sample containing other types of cells. In particular, the present invention includes a debulking step that uses a microfabricated filters for filtering fluid samples and the enriched rare cells can be used in a downstream process such as identifies, characterizes or even grown in culture or used in other ways. The invention also include a method of determining the aggressiveness of the tumor or of the number or proportion of cancer cells in the enriched sample by detecting the presence or amount of telomerase activity or telomerase nucleic acid or telomerase expression after enrichment of rare cells. This invention further provides an efficient and rapid method to specifically remove red blood cells as well as white blood cells from a biological sample.
