  • Publication number: 20230183801
    Abstract: A system that non-destructively and quickly determines a degree of senescence of cells to be cultured by utilizing the discovery that when cells are adhered to a surface of a culture substrate in a culture medium, the degree of cytoplasm spreading on the culture substrate is indicative of the degree of senescence. The degree of the spreading can be detected based on a result of brightness, reflectance, or image processing, and the degree of senescence is determined. It is also possible to determine the degree of senescence from a rate of the spread.
