Abstract: Provided is a cell tissue producing method including: a cell adhesive portion forming step of forming a cell adhesive portion formed of a cell adhesive material and having a predetermined shape at a predetermined position over a substrate having a cell non-adhesive surface; and a cell locating step of discharging a cell suspension containing at least cells and a cell drying inhibitor onto the cell adhesive portion in the form of a liquid droplet to locate the cells.

Abstract: A liquid discharge head including: a film member including a discharge hole configured to discharge liquid; and a displacement member configured to displace a position of the film member to discharge the liquid from the discharge hole, wherein an edge of the film member forming the discharge hole has a curve in a cross section of the film member in a thickness direction of the film member, and a surface of the film member includes a passive film.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a layered body of cells that is used in a co-culture technique and that is capable of recognizing as paracrine effect of each cell and detecting the effect with high intensity.

Abstract: Provided is a liquid set for a droplet discharging apparatus, the liquid set including: Liquid A containing a multi-branched polymer A, the polymer containing, as a backbone, a polyethylene glycol containing at least three branches, the branches containing one or more electrophilic functional groups in at least one of a side chain(s) and an end(s); and Liquid B containing a multi-branched polymer B, the polymer containing, as a backbone, a polyethylene glycol containing at least three branches, the branches containing one or more nucleophilic functional groups in at least one of a side chain(s) and an end(s); the Liquid A and the Liquid B each having a pH of from 5 to 10, and containing the multi-branched polymer at a concentration of from 0.3% by mass to 20% by mass.

Abstract: Provided is a method for producing a cell locating plate, including: a step of laminating a structural layer over a plane of a base material, the structural layer being a layer that is formed of a cell non-adhesive material and in which a plurality of holes are formed; a step of coating a coating liquid in the holes and over the plane of the base material exposed through the holes; and a step of discharging a cell suspension onto the plane coated with the coating liquid.

Abstract: Provided is a three-dimensional culture structure that is excellent in cell adhesion and cell stretching and can be produced efficiently. The three-dimensional culture structure includes cells, a cell support material configured to support the cells, and bioaffinity particles. In a preferable mode, the bioaffinity particles are exposed from at least part of the surface of the cell support material, or the bioaffinity particles are protruded from the cell support material, or a surface area occupation rate at which the bioaffinity particles are exposed is 20% or greater of the entire surface of the three-dimensional culture structure, or the bioaffinity particles are dispersed in the cell support material.
