Abstract
The invention relates to a method for tagging, identifying and isolating a target cell, wherein the cell is contacted with a capture compound comprising a small molecule moiety, for example a pharmaceutical drug molecule, capable of selectively binding with the cell surface of the target cell, and a function that is capable to covalently or quasi-covalently bind to a surface as a marker or tagging function. In some embodiments the capture compound also includes a photoactivatable reactivity function. The capture compound attaches to a particle that mediates identification or isolation of the tagged cell.
