Piezoelectric Inkjet-based Single-cells Printing by Image Processing for High Efficiency and Automatic Cell Printing

چکیده
Research in cell printing by piezoelectric inkjet printer has been conducted, however, relatively reliable single-cells printing yield had not been obtained. We proposed a different approach to increase the yield in single-cells printing by utilizing piezoelectric driving method not used in recent inkjet printer devices, push-pull method. Furthermore, cell recognition system constructed by image processing algorithm was used to predict whether individual cell is present at the tip of inkjet head. Combining both methods, we successfully developed a single-cells printing system by piezoelectric inkjet printer with single-cells printing yield of up to 98%.

We are developing inkjet printing as a low cost, high throughput approach to the deposition of front contacts for Si solar cells. High deposition rates of 1μm per printing pass were achieved with a new metalorganic ink composed of silver(trifluoroacetate) in ethylene glycol. The printing conditions were optimized to achieve a relatively high line resolution of 120 μm. The optimal parameters for...
متن کاملAdult rat retinal ganglion cells and glia can be printed by piezoelectric inkjet printing.
We have investigated whether inkjet printing technology can be extended to print cells of the adult rat central nervous system (CNS), retinal ganglion cells (RGC) and glia, and the effects on survival and growth of these cells in culture, which is an important step in the development of tissue grafts for regenerative medicine, and may aid in the cure of blindness. We observed that RGC and glia ...
