  • the perfusion was stopped, and the perfusion solution was replaced with a collagenase solution having the composition shown in Table 3 for perfusion.
  • the perfusion was stopped.
  • the liver was cut off and transferred to a glass petri dish, cold EMEM High Glucose medium (Wako) was added to disperse the cells by pipetting.
  • undigested tissue was removed with a 150 mm filter.
  • the cell suspension was centrifuged at 50G for 1 minute several times to remove non-parenchymal cells.
  • the survival rate of the obtained hepatocytes was measured by the trypan blue exclusion method, and hepatocytes with a survival rate of 85% or more were used as rat primary hepatocytes in the culture test.
  • the rat primary hepatocytes obtained by the above-described method were suspended in a serum medium having the composition described below, and obtained in Example 1 above, which was sterilized with gamma rays so as to be 1.33 ⁇ 10 4 cells / cm 2 . were seeded on the substrate 1, 37 ° C., the cells were cultured under 5% CO 2. The medium was exchanged 4 hours after seeding, after removing the entire medium on the first day, the third day, and the fifth day of culture, and then adding 0.4 mL of serum medium. On day 5 of culture, spheroid formation and the presence or absence of extended cells were confirmed.
  • FIG. 5 shows the growth state (micrograph) of the cells on the substrate 1 on the fifth day of culture. In the substrate 1, almost no stretched cells were observed, and it was confirmed that spheroids (cell aggregates) having a diameter of 200 ⁇ m or less were uniformly distributed throughout the well in a state of adhering to the substrate.
