Abstract: An object of the present invention is to enable simpler operation in real time and culture while removing unnecessary cells from cultured cells for purification in analyzing, fractionating, and culturing the cells alive and to analyze and fractionate desired cells from the cultured cells to increase the purity, recovery rate, and viability of the cells. The present invention employs a cell-adhesive photocontrollable base material, wherein light irradiation causes the bond dissociation of a photolabile group comprising a coumarinylmethyl skeleton to produce the separation of a cell-adhesive material to leave a non-cell-adhesive material. As a result, cell images can be detected and analyzed to obtain the positional information of desired cells. Based on the positional information thus obtained, the cells can be analyzed and fractionated alive.

Abstract: In analyzing, fractionating, and culturing cells alive, operations can be more simply made in real time and culture can be performed while removing unnecessary cells from cultured cells for purification. Desired cells are also analyzed and fractionated from the cultured cells to increase the purity, recovery rate, and viability of the cells. A cell-adhesive photocontrollable base material is used in which light irradiation causes the bond dissociation of a photolabile group comprising an O-nitrobenzyl skeleton to irreversibly change the surface of the irradiated portion thereof from that of the cell-adhesive material to that of a non-cell-adhesive material. Cell images are detected and analyzed to obtain the positional information of desired cells. Based on this information, areas among cells and a cell-adhesive photocontrollable material are cut by second light irradiation.

Abstract: Provided is a dried noodle having a porosity in the cross-sectional area of the noodle of from 0.1 to 15%, a unit porosity in the cross-sectional area of the noodle of from 0.01 to 1%, a gelatinization degree of 30 to 75% and a porous structure.

Abstract: When cells are analyzed, fractionated, and incubated while keeping the cells alive, real-time operations can be performed more easily and the cells can be incubated while removing unnecessary cells from the incubated cells to purify the cells being incubated. Furthermore, desired cells are separated through analysis from the incubated cells, and the purity, recovery, and viability of the cells are heightened. Use is made of a substrate having photo-controllable cell adhesion properties, the substrate comprising a transparent base and, formed thereon, a film of a material which has photo-controllable cell adhesion properties and has been obtained by bonding a cell-adhesive material to a cell-non-adhesive material through photo-dissociable groups. Cell images are detected and analyzed to obtain information about the location of desired cells.
