An image display method includes the following operations (a) to (e). The (a) is of obtaining a plurality of two-dimensional images by two-dimensionally imaging a specimen, in which a plurality of objects to be observed are present three-dimensionally in the specimen, at a plurality of mutually different focus positions. The (b) is of obtaining image data representing a three-dimensional shape of the specimen. The (c) is of obtaining a three-dimensional image of the specimen based on the image data. The (d) is of obtaining the two-dimensional image selected from the plurality of two-dimensional images or a two-dimensional image generated to be focused on the plurality of objects based on the plurality of two-dimensional images as an integration two-dimensional image. The (e) is of integrating the integration two-dimensional image obtained in the (d) with the three-dimensional image obtained in the (c) and displaying an integrated image on a display unit.

A method of manufacturing a microplate including a plurality of wells includes obtaining an upper portion of the microplate. A bottom surface of the microplate is coated with a bottom surface uncured resin. A sheet material is disposed adjacent a central portion of the bottom surface. A frame is disposed adjacent an edge portion of the bottom surface. The frame contains a frame uncured resin. At least a portion of the bottom surface uncured resin is cured to produce a bottom surface cured resin. At least a portion of the frame uncured resin is cured to produce a frame cured resin. A remaining portion of the bottom surface uncured resin is removed subsequent to curing at least a portion of the bottom surface uncured resin.

A system and method for studying cell injury mechanisms by applying biologically relevant mechanical impact to in vitro cell culture are disclosed. This approach is for maintaining consistent in vitro conditions during experiments, accommodating multiple cell populations, and monitoring each in real-time while achieving amplitude and time scale of input acceleration that mimic blunt injury cases. These multiplexed, environmental control capabilities enable characterizing the relationships between mechanical impact and cell injury in multivariate biological systems.

Disclosed herein are compositions and methods to decellularize an isolated organ or portion thereof. Also disclosed herein are compositions and methods for treatment of disease utilizing a decellularized or recellularized organ. Also disclosed herein are methods of improving decellularization and/or recellularization of an isolated organ or portion thereof.

A cell culture microdevice for maintaining and culturing a cell therein comprising a cell culture unit having at least a first cell carrier unit defining a cell culture chamber formed therein, the first cell carrier unit formed from at least, a chamber base shaped to support the cell thereon, and one or more chamber walls having one or more chamber wall surfaces enclosing the cell culture chamber about a chamber boundary, the first cell carrier unit further providing a guiding surface to guide instruments or fluids into the cell culture chamber located at an aperture through a chamber wall, wherein the cell culture microdevice is configured at a scale to substantially enclose a single cell or cell mass therein. Embodiments of the cell culture microdevice may be suitable for in vitro fertilisation procedures and drug efficacy testing.

Structures and methods for tissue engineering include a multicellular body including a plurality of living cells. A plurality of multicellular bodies can be arranged in a pattern and allowed to fuse to form an engineered tissue. The arrangement can include filler bodies including a biocompatible material that resists migration and ingrowth of cells from the multicellular bodies and that is resistant to adherence of cells to it. Three-dimensional constructs can be assembled by printing or otherwise stacking the multicellular bodies and filler bodies such that there is direct contact between adjoining multicellular bodies, suitably along a contact area that has a substantial length. The direct contact between the multicellular bodies promotes efficient and reliable fusion. The increased contact area between adjoining multicellular bodies also promotes efficient and reliable fusion. Methods of producing multicellular bodies having characteristics that facilitate assembly of the three-dimensional constructs are also provided.

The present application provides a pluripotent stem cell-derived neuronal culture system for use in modeling neurodegenerative diseases, drug screening and target discovery; and methods of generating homogenous, terminally differentiated neuronal culture from pluripotent stem cells, and compositions resulting thereof; as well as automated cell culture systems that sustain long-term differentiation, maturation and/or growth of neuronal cells for use in modeling neurodegenerative diseases.

The present disclosure concerns a cell or tissue culture system comprising a solid support for the culture of adherent cells or adherent tissues and a plurality of cationic dendrimers associated to the surface of the solid support. Each cationic dendrimer includes one or more functional amine group. The cationic dendrimer is protonated at physiological pH. The cell or tissue culture system can be used for the culture of adherent cells or tissues and be used for the differentiation of stem cells.

The invention generally relates to containers for cell and tissue culturing with multiple compartments in fluid communication with each other to provide a common culture environment in each of the compartments while maintaining physical separation of cells and tissue therein. The invention further relates to culture containers providing a sterile culture environment with detachably coupleable lids and open access to each compartment within a container.

The present disclosure aims to provide a manufacturing method of a cell structure. The manufacturing method comprises producing a coated region in which a culturing surface is coated with a temperature-responsive polymer or a temperature-responsive polymer composition, forming a droplet of a cell suspension in the coated region, and performing cell culturing in the droplet. A surface zeta potential of the coated region is 0 mV to 50 mV.
