| Research Abstract |
In the present study, a cell assembly device for in-vitro three-dimensional (3D) tissue construction based on the magneto-Archimedes effect was designed and fabricated. So as to utilize the magneto-Archimedes effect, it is necessary to add paramagnetic compound like an MRI contrast agent to the culture medium. We confirmed that its cytotoxicity was low enough. We also aggregated myoblast cells with the developed device and tried construct a 3D muscle tissue.
