Abstract:
Cell sorting is important for cell biology and regenerative medicine. A visible light-responsive cell scaffold is produced using gold nanoparticles and collagen gel. Various kinds of cells are cultured on the visible light-responsive cell scaffold, and the target cells are selectively detached by photoirradiation without any cytotoxicity. This is a new image-guided cell sorting system.
