Abstract

An embodiment of the disclosed technology provides an isolation device for isolating clustered particles. The isolation device can include an inlet configured to receive a fluid and an outlet configured to output the fluid. The fluid can include a plurality of non-clustered particles and a plurality of clustered particles. The isolation device can include a plurality of microwells. Each microwell can have a plurality of sidewalls and a bottom surfacing having a meshed trapping region. The meshed trapping region can capture the plurality of clustered particles while allowing the non-clustered particles to pass. The outputted fluid can include the plurality of non-clustered particle and be substantially free of the plurality of clustered particles.
