Abstract
A device ('the ExoTIC device') for the isolation of extracellular vesicles from an extracellular vesicle-containing sample in which the sample is flowed through a membrane in a flow chamber to capture and purify the extracellular vesicles on the membrane. The extracellular vesicles may be washed and collected and utilized in any one of a number of ways including, but not limited to, identifying biomarkers of a disease, identifying the presence of a biomarker in a patient to determine whether a patient has a disease, and therapeutically treating existing diseases by re-introducing the extracellular vesicles, potentially modified, back into a body.
