Abstract
A microchip device for chemotaxis observation according to the present invention is provided with the first well in which chemotactic factors are to be filled, and the second well in which chemotactic cells are to be filled. There is provided a channel between the first well and the second well. The channel has a plurality of paths. A sidewall surfaces of the path is substantially perpendicular to a bottom surface, as formed by anisotropic dry etching.
Claims7
A microchip device for chemotaxis observation comprising:
- a first area in which chemotactic factors are to be filled;
- a second area in which chemotactic cells are to be filled;
- and
- a channel having at least one path communicating between the first area and the second area;
- wherein a sidewall surface of the path is substantially perpendicular to a bottom surface of the path.
A manufacturing method of a microchip device for chemotaxis observation having a first area in which chemotactic factors are to be filled, a second area in which chemotactic cells are to be filled, and a channel having at least one path communicating between the first area and the second area, wherein the channel is formed by anisotropic dry etching.
