Abstract
A microfluidic device () comprises a substrate () having a flow input channel () in fluid connection with a first fluid port () and a flow output channel () in fluid connection with a third fluid port () and cell channels () disposed between the flow input channel () and the flow output channel (). The cell channels () comprise a respective obstruction () designed to prevent the target cells from passing the respective obstruction () and into the flow output channel (). The microfluidic device () also comprises a pre-filter () with a filter channel () in fluid connection with a first filter port () and pre-filter channels () adapted to accommodate the target cells. A respective first end () of the pre-filter channels () is in fluid connection with the filter channel () and a respective second end () of the pre-filter channels () is in fluid connection with the flow input channel ().
