Abstract: The method disclosed herein is for evaluating the quality of a transplant neural retina by sampling a part or the whole of a cell aggregate containing a neural retina having an epithelial structure derived from a pluripotent stem cell as a sample for quality evaluation.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for preserving neural tissue for several hours to several weeks without freezing, a preservation solution therefor, a transport method for neural tissue in accordance with the method and using the preservation solution, and a composition for transplantation. The preservation method for neural tissue, comprising preserving neural tissue in a preservation solution having a potassium ion concentration of more than 0 mM and less than 115 mM at a preservation temperature of 8° C. to 30° C. The preservation solution having a potassium ion concentration of more than 0 mM and less than 115 mM, for preserving neural tissue derived from pluripotent stem cells at a preservation temperature of 8° C. to 30° C.

Abstract: In a structure comprising a pair of facing electrode plates and a layer of a nematic liquid crystal having a positive dielectric anisotropy, which is supported between said facing electrode plates, when each of the electrode surfaces coming into contact with the nematic liquid crystal layer is provided with a coating of poly-p-xylylene and/or its substituted product and the surface of said coating is furnished with a predetermined orientation, a liquid crystal device of the torsion effect type having good electro-optical characteristics is provided. When a layer of an epoxy resin or silane coupling agent is formed between the coating of the poly-p-xylylene type resin and the electrode surface, the adhesion of the poly-p-xylylene type resin coating is improved.
