Abstract
A cell survival rate determining device includes a survival rate calculation unit calculating the survival rate of cells in a cell population based on a peak wavelength giving a peak intensity of autofluorescence emitted by the cell population and a peak wavelength of excitation light giving the peak intensity of autofluorescence; and a determination unit determining whether the calculated survival rate of cells is reliable or not based on an amount of a shift and a direction of the shift per unit time in the peak wavelength of autofluorescence and an amount of a shift and a direction of the shift per unit time in the peak wavelength of excitation light.
