More Details: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have garnered significant attention in biomedical applications. However, the rapid, efficient, and unbiased separation of EVs from complex biological fluids remains a challenge due to their heterogeneity and low abundance in biofluids. Herein, we report a novel approach to reconfigure and modify an artificial insertion peptide for the unbiased and rapid isolation of EVs in 20 min with ∼80% recovery in neutral conditions. Moreover, the approach demonstrates exceptional anti-interference capability and achieves a high purity of EVs comparable to standard ultracentrifugation and other methods. Importantly, the isolated EVs could be directly applied for downstream protein and nucleic acid analyses, including proteomics analysis, exome sequencing analysis, as well as the detection of both epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homologue (KRAS) gene mutation in clinical plasma samples. Our approach offers great possibilities for utilizing EVs in liquid biopsy, as well as in various other biomedical applications.
