Abstract: The present invention belongs to the field of cryopreservation of cells and tissue cultures, more specifically it refers to a method for the cryopreservation and long term storage of cells, cell constructs or three-dimensional complex tissues assemblies. The methods are based on the use of a collagen cell carrier having a specific composition as well as to a very specific thickness and appropriate mechanical properties which are maintained after thawing. The use of such collagen cell carrier (CCC) provides a very suitable support for the cryopreservation resulting in very high survival rates after thawing and providing cells and tissue assemblies already adhered to a mechanically stable and biocompatible support. 
     The invention also refers to the frozen collagen carrier-cells assembly and to the frozen artificial cell constructs or three-dimensional complex tissue assemblies obtainable by the method of the invention and to the use thereof after thawing.

Abstract: Ends (134a-1) of projections (134a) do not contact a first substrate (11), forming a gap between the ends (134a-1) and the first substrate (11). The internal capacity of a suction pump (17) can be increased by an amount by which the projections (134a) are shortened, compared to a conventional structure in which pillars are formed to connect the ceiling and bottom of the cavity of a capillary pump. The capacity of the suction pump (17) can be increased without enlarging the planar shape. Further, the ends (134a-1) of the projections (134a) do not contact the first substrate (11), forming a gap between them. An impurity can pass through the gap, and clogging of the inside of the suction pump (17) with the impurity can be prevented, realizing a stable operation.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé pour détecter des liquides (28) ou des substances de liquides (28) dans des zones de réactions spatialement différentes. La présente invention concerne en outre l'utilisation dudit dispositif dans un module enfichable ou une carte à puce, pouvant être utilisé par un appareil de lecture pour un test immunologique rapide, par exemple. Les fluides (28) ou les substances de fluides (28) sont détectés par un réseau de capteurs (5) composé d'au moins deux capteurs (6) et sur lequel est disposée au moins une membrane (13). Les capteurs individuels (6) sont séparés les uns des autres par des parois (8) dans une surface plane. La membrane (13) peut être remplie de fluide à étudier (28). La mise sous pression de la membrane (13) provoque la création d'espaces de réaction fermés (7). Les pores dans la membrane (13) se trouvant dans la section des parois (8) sont entièrement fermés. Dans les zones se trouvant directement sur le capteur (6), les pores sont seulement réduits et un échange de liquide est encore possible. Entre les espaces de réaction voisins (7), aucun échange de liquide n'est possible tant que la pression agit sur la membrane (13) et comprime celle-ci. Des réactions peuvent se produire dans les espaces de réaction fermés (7), indépendamment des réactions se produisant dans les espaces de réaction voisins (7). Les mesures des produits de réaction ou des substances dans le liquide (28) peuvent être effectuées dans des espaces de réaction fermés (7) avec un taux d'erreur inférieur par rapport aux écoulements de liquide au-dessus de l'ensemble de la membrane (13).
