On 23 October 2019, China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) issued a circular which liberalises foreign exchange control for foreign investment and cross-border trade.

The detection of rare circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in patients' blood is crucial for the early diagnosis of cancer, highly precise cancer therapy and monitoring therapeutic outcomes in real time. In this study we have developed an efficient strategy to capture and detect CTCs from the blood of cancer patients using a benzoboric acid modified gold-plated polymeric substrate with a regular 3D surface array.
