A stripe width a of the stripe-like part in cross section of the electron donor layer and a stripe width b of the stripe-like part in cross section of the electron acceptor layer are both 5 to 100 nm. When a=b, a thickness c of the active layer is twice to 40 times as large as a (=b). When a≠b, the thickness c of the active layer is twice or more of one of a and b which is smaller and 40 times or less of one of a and b which is larger.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cell culture chamber with which the survival rate of cells to be cultured can be increased, and a method of producing the same. A cell culture chamber according to the present invention includes a mass of projections formed of a plurality of microprojections 1 formed on a surface on which cells are cultured. The width or diameter of each of the microprojections 1 is in a range of 20 nm to 3 μm, and the aspect ratio of each of the microprojections is in a range of 0.2 to 3.0. Thus, there can be provided a cell culture chamber most suitable for the adhesion and differentiation/proliferation of cells to be cultured.

To provide a cell culture chamber capable of reproducing a cell function in vivo, and a method of producing the same. The cell culture chamber according to the present invention has a concave-convex pattern formed on the surface on which cells are cultured. A concave portion of the concave-convex pattern includes cell culture portions and micro flow channels communicating with the cell culture portions. The bottom surface of each of the cell culture portions has a width 1.0 to 20 times an equivalent diameter of each of the cultured cells. A cell adhesion-inducing substance is formed only on the bottom surface and the side walls of the concave portion.

To provide a cell culture kit including cultured living cells of various donors, and a manufacturing method thereof. The cell culture kit includes a culture plate and living cells cultured thereon. The culture plate includes a plurality of microchambers (33) and living cells derived from various donors are adhered to surfaces of the plurality of microchambers (33). Specifically, living cells D1, D2, and D3 derived from various donors are adhered to the plurality of microchambers (33). In each microchamber (33), living cells derived from one donor or living cells derived from various donors may be cultured. The living cells derived from various donors are adhered and cultured in the cell culture kit as a whole, which makes it possible to provide a cell culture kit to conduct a test using cells derived from various donors.

It is intended to provide a cell culture chamber in a shape suitable for cell culture. It is also intended to provide a cell culture chamber which is inexpensive and facilitates observation. A cell culture chamber (100) includes a cover (10), a chamber body (20) and a plate-shaped base (30). The cover (10) covers an opening (21) of the chamber body (20). The chamber body (20) contains a culture such as cells. The plate base (30) covers a through hole (24) formed at the bottom (23) of the chamber body (20). Moreover, the plate base (30) has fine pits and projections formed thereon for culturing the culture.
摘要:
To provide a cell storage method to store living cells while maintaining the functions of the living cells. An aspect of the cell storage method is a method to store living cells (40) by using a cell culture chamber (20) including a plurality of the microchambers (11), the method including: culturing the living cells by being adhered to the surfaces of a plurality of micro spaces; and after the culturing, pouring the culture medium (50) into the cell culture chamber (20) so as to cover the plurality of microchambers (11), and storing the living cells. The living cells are adhered to a cell culture chamber of an appropriate size and cultured to form a three-dimensional structure. This enables maintaining the three-dimensional structure of the living cells and storage of the living cells while maintaining the functions thereof.

Provided is a method that achieves control of embryoid body size and can induce differentiation in a state where the embryoid body size is controlled, by using a cell culture chamber having a plurality of microchambers formed therein. A culture method for causing differentiation of pluripotent mammalian cells uses a cell culture chamber (10) having a plurality of microchambers (11) formed on a culture surface. The cell culture chamber (10) has a culture surface formed of spaces in which the microchambers (11) have a space structure with a height of 10 μm to 500 μm and a bottom area of 100 μm2 to 1 mm2. The culture method for causing differentiation of pluripotent mammalian cells includes culturing pluripotent mammalian cells to obtain a cell population at least partially differentiated into endoderm lineage cells, by using the cell culture chambers (10).

A cell culture chamber and a cell culture method that are capable of effectively constructing an intercellular network in a culture space are provided. A cell culture chamber (10)according to the present invention is a cell culture chamber (10)including a plurality of microchambers (11) formed on a surface thereof, characterized in that convex portions (side walls 12) that partition the microchambers (11) adjacent to each other are formed to prevent cells from being adhered to upper surfaces of the convex portions. Consequently, cells can be cultured exclusively within the microchambers (11), and an intercellular network can be constructed effectively.
