説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>It is important to distinguish a living/dead cell in cell culture, especially in the regenerate medicine field including cell therapy, since those cells are usually in short supply and consequently the ex vivo culture process should be operated strictly. Conventional methods for distinguishing a living from a dead cell usually require labeling with a dye, which spoils the culture of the cell. Here we show a simple noninvasive method for diagnosing a dead or alive cell with a probe beam. If a cell is alive, the active transport of materials across the cell membrane causes a change of concentration gradients, and this change further induces a change of deflection of a probe beam passing through a vicinity of the cell membrane. If a cell is dead, no or little change in deflection of the probe beam is induced because no or little active materials movement across the cell membrane exists. The deflection of the probe beam is monitored, and judgment on whether a cell is dead or alive from the deflection signal agreed with the conventional decision.</jats:p>
