1. A device for isolating and identifying a target cell from a cellular mixture, said device comprising:

  • a solid substantially planar surface having a bioactive coating applied on a top open planar region of said solid substantially planar surface; and

    ,at least one bifunctional compound capable of binding to said target cell and to said bioactive coating; and

    a delivery conduit mounted on said solid substantially planar surface and communicating said bifunctional compound with said bioactive coating on said open planar region of said solid substantially planar surface;

    said delivery conduit mounted on said solid substantially planar surface so as to form an unsealed space between said delivery conduit and said solid substantially planar surface, said unsealed space having a predetermined height and said space allowing flow of said bifunctional compound to travel beyond said delivery conduit across said substantially planar surface over said bioactive coating on said substantially planar surface.
