Abstract:
A cell observation device is cell observation device for observing a cell held by a microplate having a well holding a sample including the cell and includes a microplate holder for holding the microplate thereon, an electrical stimulation unit including an electrode pair including a first electrode and a second electrode, and a position controller for controlling a position of the electrical stimulation unit in a state in which the first electrode is disposed closer to the center of the well than the second electrode when the electrode pair is disposed in the well of the microplate. The tip of the first electrode extends more than the tip of the second electrode.

Abstract:
A cell observation apparatus is a cell observation apparatus for observing a cell held by a microplate having an array of wells holding respective samples, which comprises a microplate holder for the microplate to be mounted thereon, and an electrical stimulation unit in which a plurality of electrode pairs, each electrode pair including a negative electrode and a positive electrode, are arranged, wherein the negative electrode and the positive electrode are coated with respective insulators except for their leading ends facing the well, and the leading ends form respective electrode portions exposed to the outside, and wherein a space penetrating upward from the electrode portions is formed between the negative electrode and the positive electrode.
