There is provided a method for easily determining an undifferentiated state of pluripotent stem cells without relying on the judgment of a skilled technician. The method includes: a step of evaluating an undifferentiated state of pluripotent stem cells based on a time-dependent change in a variation value of an extracellular metabolite contained in a culture medium in which the pluripotent stem cells are cultured, wherein the extracellular metabolite is at least one selected from a group consisting of L-glutamic acid, L-alanine and ammonia.

摘要:
Method for fabricating the structure of an electronic device (e.g. a high-performance MOS semiconductor device) having good electric characteristics in which an SiO2 film and an SiON film are employed as an insulation film having an extremely small thickness (e.g. 2.5 nm or less) and polysilicon, amorphous silicon or SiGe is employed for an electrode. Under existence of a processing gas containing oxygen and a rare gas, a wafer W principally comprising Si is irradiated with microwave through a planar antenna member SPA to form a plasma containing oxygen and a rare gas (or a plasma containing nitrogen and a rare gas or a plasma containing nitrogen, a rare gas and hydrogen). An oxide film (or an oxide nitride film) is formed on the wafer surface using that plasma and an electrode of polysilicon, amorphous silicon or SiGe is formed, as required, thus forming the structure of an electronic device.
