Cell Seed Character "Saibou-chan"

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.

At our cell culture center, we conduct contract services related to cell sheet manufacturing, facility operation, and the preparation of application documents.

Features of Regenerative Medicine Contract Services 1. Development and Contract Manufacturing of Cell Sheet Products We provide contract development and manufacturing services primarily for cell sheets, commissioned by pharmaceutical companies and research institutions. Our team includes clinical culture specialists certified by the Japanese Society for Regenerative Medicine, and we offer high-quality cell sheet product development and manufacturing using experienced staff in a cell culture processing facility licensed for the production of specific cell processed products. 2. Facility Management and Application Support The "Act on Securing Safety for Regenerative Medicine" stipulates the structure, equipment, and operation of cell processing, requiring each cell culture processing facility to submit notifications and applications for permits to the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare. At CellSeed, we assist with the notification and application documentation for the manufacture of specific cell processed products, as well as the creation of necessary operational documents. Additionally, we support the necessary administrative procedures, including the preparation of consultation materials for authorities regarding applications such as clinical trial notifications. 3. Education for Cell Culture Technicians We conduct training for cell culture technicians who have no prior experience with cell sheets, covering procedures such as cell sheet culture and detachment at our cell culture facility. For more details, please contact us or refer to our catalog.

Live demonstration available! The difference compared to metal heating plates is clear!

It is a transparent heating element made of specially processed hard glass. It improves work efficiency in clean benches for tasks such as microscope observation and media exchange using UpCell/RepCell. Temperature settings are possible from room temperature to 50°C. It is lightweight (approximately 70g) and suitable for portability. It can also be used to cover petri dishes and multi-well plates to prevent fogging during photography. Demonstrations are available. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

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.

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.

Sample presentation available! Cell sheets can be easily collected and transplanted. We use materials that are gentle on cells.

Features Dedicated cell sheet recovery support "CellShifter" for UpCell Utilizes a material with flexibility and water absorption suitable for cell detachment that could not be achieved with hydrophilic PVDF membranes or nitrocellulose membranes. This allows for the reliable and easy recovery of your precious cell sheets that have been carefully cultured with UpCell. The CellShifter, with the cell sheet adhered to it, boasts excellent ease of handling when transplanted directly to the host. Thanks to the specially treated material, there are almost no detached fibers. We guarantee maximum experimental results. Please take this opportunity to experience the results of years of material development.

The hyper CLT sheets come in two sizes: 5×10 and 5×20. Key points for selection include the size of the site, the installation location, the heavy machinery used, and the frequency of replacement. The 5×10 sheet measures approximately 1.5m × 3m and weighs about 230kg. It is easy to handle even with small machinery, making it suitable for sites where partial installation is desired, such as worker pathways, around rest areas, material yards, and temporary parking lots. A 10-ton truck can carry up to 40 sheets, which also enhances transportation efficiency. On the other hand, the 5×20 sheet measures approximately 1.5m × 6m and weighs about 460kg. It can cover a large area with a single sheet, making it suitable for long access roads, temporary roads, and spacious heavy machinery work yards. It is also characterized by its ability to reduce seams. In some cases, combining both sizes can be an effective approach. The hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering CLT materials utilizing wood and are registered with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under the NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." Choosing the right size according to site conditions can enhance workability and usability.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repairs without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Japan is among the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of significant earthquakes occurring. For the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake measures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" ◎ For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
