PCR-based assessment of the recovery rate of exfoliated colonocytes or cancer cells from fecal samples depends on the storage conditions after defecation

We recently developed a new methodology for isolating colonocytes from fecal samples. We then applied a DNA-based analysis to the isolated colonocytes to detect colorectal cancer cells originating from any part of the colorectum. The purpose of the present study was to determine how long after defec...
