Announcement of the launch of new products in the UpCellⓇ series (flask and insert)

No need for trypsin! Macrophages and others are collected intact. The temperature-responsive culture equipment UpCell has "grid walls" arranged at 3mm intervals.

◆The temperature-responsive culture device UpCell for cell recovery is equipped with "grid walls" placed at 3mm intervals. ◆It has become easier to recover cultured cells in single cell/small colony form. ◆The grid wall is a new technology that prevents cells from proliferating beyond the grid by using optimized grooves on the surface of the culture dish. Cells can be recovered intact with just a short time and temperature treatment. Advantages of RepCell - It is known that trypsin significantly damages cell viability, but with RepCell, it is possible to recover cells while maintaining surface antigens and extracellular matrix. - Cell detachment using only temperature treatment The only necessary procedure for cell recovery is temperature treatment, eliminating the need for cumbersome pipetting operations associated with traditional trypsin use.

It is possible to collect mesenchymal stem cells, dendritic cells, macrophages, and cell sheets without using trypsin and without causing damage.

- Celsid's Technology By utilizing a unique nano-surface design, temperature-responsive polymer (PIPAAm) has been immobilized on the surface of the equipment. This allows the surface to change from hydrophobic (cell-adhesive surface) to hydrophilic (cell-releasing surface) by lowering the surface temperature around 32°C. Without using any enzymes that can damage cells, such as trypsin, intact cells can be recovered simply by setting the equipment temperature to 20-25°C and waiting for about 10-30 minutes. - Benefits 1) Easy cell recovery through temperature control. 2) Recovered cells completely retain the extracellular matrix. 3) No need for trypsin, which can harm cells. 4) Suitable for culturing tissues used in regenerative medicine research. 5) For 3D culture by stacking homo/heterogeneous cell sheets. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

Complete suppression of cell adhesion in cell culture.

By applying our unique nano-surface design technology, we have fixed (covalently bonded) superhydrophilic polymers to the surfaces of our equipment. In addition to being superhydrophilic, this polymer creates a free water film. The double effect of "superhydrophilicity" and "free water" has achieved a level of low adhesion performance that far surpasses conventional low-adhesion equipment. For more details, please contact us or refer to our catalog.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has initiated various construction projects, and safety management and improvement of working conditions during the extreme heat of summer have become significant themes at civil engineering sites. Even as the concept of summer work stoppages spreads, it is important not to rely solely on stoppages but to focus on innovative temporary materials to improve daily site conditions. Hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering materials that utilize wooden CLT. They can be used in various civil engineering sites as a substitute for steel plates, including temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways. The 5×10 sheet weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 sheet weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of installation and removal. Thanks to the unique properties of wood, these sheets can help minimize glare compared to steel plates, making them useful for heat stroke prevention measures and environmental considerations during the summer. Additionally, they are expected to provide benefits in terms of construction efficiency and site environment, such as improved transportation efficiency and noise reduction. As a registered technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS "TH-250021-A," they are also recommended for creative proposals in public works. Please consider them as a new option for civil engineering sites looking to address heat-related issues, including summer work stoppages. We also accept inquiries for consultations on implementation tailored to site conditions and requests for materials. We can provide proposals for public works and private civil engineering projects both within and outside Okayama Prefecture. Please feel free to contact us.

In recent years, as infectious diseases have spread, there has been a demand for products that enable "contactless operation," and this trend has extended to environments where automatic doors were previously operated by touch switches. As the automation of doors and the non-contact operation of automatic doors become more widespread, do you have any of the following concerns? ☑ Although we have introduced automatic doors, they remain open due to people crossing frequently in busy areas. ☑ We implemented touch switches to reduce unnecessary opening and closing, but we are concerned about hygiene. ☑ Touch switches require battery replacements regularly since they are powered. The light beam touch sensor "HA-T401" allows automatic doors to open and close without physical contact, and its compact detection range makes it suitable for narrow passages and high foot traffic areas, contributing to energy savings and infection control. 【Benefits of Implementation】 ○ Adaptable to various door types with four different spot settings, ideal for busy roads and narrow passages. ○ Energy-saving effect with two setting modes that reduce unnecessary opening and closing of automatic doors. ○ Equipped with a light beam touch function, allowing doors to open and close simply by waving a hand, ensuring hygiene. ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

The inspection targets of the "MSX-7003 series" are relatively large electronic devices. 【Inspection Targets】 - LED - Optical devices - High-frequency devices - Power semiconductors - IR sensors - Gyro sensors - Angular velocity sensors - Electrolytic capacitors, etc. The transport system is designed based on "pallet to pallet" to accommodate various types of work. The following three processes are performed automatically by the airtight inspection device: - Helium bombarding - Gross leak test - Fine leak test For packaged products smaller than 10 mm on each side, the work is set up using pallets or trays, followed by helium bombarding ↓ Then transported to the leak test process through high-speed handling ↓ Going through a continuous process from the gross leak test to the fine leak test ↓ And finally, discharged onto a pallet through high-speed handling. It also supports inline operations (the height of the pass line is 940 mm). Please watch the YouTube video from the link below.
