Abstract

See full text

A cell-trapping device includes a microchannel portion for trapping a plurality of cells with an average diameter of at most 25 μm for high-throughput microinjection of an injectant into the cells. The cell-trapping device includes a microchannel portion having formed therein a cell-trapping area including a plurality of cell-trapping microchannels configured to trap one cell per cell-trapping channel. A method for preparing the cell-trapping device and an apparatus for high-throughput microinjection is also provided. Further provided is a method for injecting an injectant into a plurality of cells. The cell-trapping device, apparatus, and method allow for a rapid and highly reproducible microinjection into small cells with high productivity, high accuracy and a good cell survival rate.
