A novel biomimetic immuno‐magnetosome (IMS) is developed by coating a leukocyte membrane (decorated with anti‐epithelial cell‐adhesion molecule antibody) on a magnetic nanocluster. In addition to the good stability and magnetic controllability, the IMS also exhibits satisfactory binding avidity to circulating tumor cells but stealth property to leukocytes. As a result, rare tumor cells can be effectively enriched with undetectable leukocyte background.
