How pure are the CTCs enriched from blood samples using the AdnaTest?

After the enrichment process for the CTCs, about 1000–1500 leucocytes remain present (100–150 when using the AdnaTest EMT/SC). However, these low numbers of leukocytes do not interfere with CTC detection in the test procedures since the markers utilized are usually not expressed in leucocytes at detectable levels.
