Zusammenfassung: | Provided are a method of and apparatus for evaluating immune cells using magnetic particles. According to an aspect of the method, magnetic particles may be used to measure interaction of the magnetic particles with immune cells, thereby diagnosing or evaluating a degree of activation of immune cells of a subject or immune-related diseases of the subject. Further, according to an aspect of the apparatus, a phenomenon of interaction of magnetic particles and activated immune cells via endocytosis may be used to collect magnetic particle-immune cell complexes resulting from the interaction with the magnetic particles by applying a magnetic field, thereby effectively isolating the activated immune cells in a short period of time. |
