The establishment of methods for fabricating a 3-dimensional tissue structure in vitro is an important challenge in the field of regenerative medicine. Present tissue engineering is not sufficiently advanced to fabricate large tissue structures or organ structures which have a lot of cell constituents such as a liver. Therefore, various approaches to building 3-dimensional cell structures are currently being researched. In this paper, we propose a mesh-shape 3-dimensional structure, obtained by using alginate gel fiber which contains cells. We also try to make a mesh shape structure by using our developed system. By using the proposed system, we demonstrate that it is possible to fabricate mesh with various interval sizes and 2-layered mesh.
