  • Publication number: 20240150693
    Abstract: The invention of the present application provides a sterile container for cell culture that is sufficiently sterilized but sufficiently retains a low cell adsorption property and that easily forms cell aggregates by cell culture. The sterile container for cell culture having a low cell adsorption property of the invention of the present application includes a cell accommodation part which is made of a resin material and is capable of accommodating cells and a liquid culture medium to perform cell culture, in which a coating layer made of a water-soluble resin having a hydrophilic functional group at a side chain is formed on an inner surface of the cell accommodation part, cross-linking is formed in the water-soluble resin itself and between the water-soluble resin and the inner surface of the cell accommodation part, and the container is subjected to a radiation sterilization treatment with an absorbed radiation dose of 20 kGy or more and 45 kGy or less.

  • Publication number: 20190031993
    Abstract: A cell accommodating chip is adapted for use in a screening apparatus for searching for a predetermined cell based on optical information emitted from a substance on the cell accommodating chip and selectively collecting the cell searched for. The cell accommodating chip includes a substrate composed of a light-transmitting material, and a plurality of wells capable of accommodating cells, the plurality of wells being provided on at least one of main faces of the substrate. A surface of the cell accommodating chip having the plurality of wells is coated with a specific polymer having a crosslinked structure.

  • Patent number: 9310358
    Abstract: A sugar chain array containing a sugar chain immobilized thereon for detecting binding between an analyte and a sugar chain, and a sugar chain array having the sugar chain immobilized thereon that is capable of inhibiting non-specific adsorption and binding of an analyte without having to coat the array with an adsorption inhibitor. A specific sugar chain is immobilized on the array, and is useful for detecting binding between the sugar chain and an analyte, such as a pathogen of an infectious disease or an excretion thereof. In addition, in the array, when a base material is coated with a polymeric compound having a unit having a primary amino group, a unit for maintaining hydrophilicity, and a unit having a hydrophobic group, the sugar chain is immobilized efficiently and non-specific adsorption and binding of the analyte can be effectively inhibited.

  • Publication number: 20130316932
    Abstract: The present invention provides: a glycopeptide array which is useful for the detection of the binding between a substance to be detected and a glycopeptide; and an array which can inhibit the non-specific adsorption or binding of a substance to be detected without the need of coating any adsorption-inhibiting agent and which has the glycopeptide immobilized thereon. In the present invention, it was found that a glycopeptide that has a molecule having a carbonyl group bound to a peptide moiety thereof can be immobilized on a substrate that is coated with a polymer compound containing a unit having a primary amino group with high efficiency through the carbonyl group.

  • Publication number: 20130071938
    Abstract: It has been found out that it is possible to increase the ionization efficiency of a sample sugar chain by methylating hydroxyl groups of the sugar chain before MALDI-TOF MS measurement. This enables quantitative and structural analyses on the sample sugar chain with high accuracy.
