Abstract
In the field of tissue engineering, it is important to manipulate cells. While either optical or magnetic tweezers method or micro hand is often used in the previous researches, these systems are complicated and difficult to adjust the point of the tools to cells. The challenging point of this paper is to develop a much simpler system with capability of manipulating the cell. By introducing both a high speed vision with micro processor and a micro fluid chip with "Position-Adjustment-Free" channel, manipulating a cell on one dimension in the channel can be easily realized. By using the developed system, we manipulate human red blood cells successively with higher accuracy.
