Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mold manufacturing, and in particular to a method for preparing a semiconductor mold and a method for preparing a cell culture plate. Background Art
[0002] In cell biology, the culture of cell groups or embryoid bodies is a common basic experiment. The cell culture plates used for culture are large in quantity and have high requirements, which play an important role in the success or failure of cell culture experiments. Due to the production technology and cost of cell culture plates, this type of consumables is currently monopolized by several foreign biological product companies. Therefore, on the basis of controlling the cost of cell culture plates, making cell culture plates that meet the requirements can serve domestic biological sciences and research well, and can also get rid of dependence on similar foreign products.
[0003] Cell culture plates can be divided into flat bottom and round bottom according to the shape of the bottom. The choice of flat bottom and round bottom cell culture plates depends on the type of cells to be cultured. Suspended cells generally have the same charge, will repel each other and will not aggregate, so V-shaped culture plates are generally used for the culture of suspended cells. Thanks to the special geometric structure of the V-shape, cells can be aggregated in a very small range under the action of gravity.
[0004] The V-shaped holes in the V-shaped cell culture plate are usually between tens of microns and hundreds of microns, which are relatively small on a macro scale. Usually, multiple V-shaped holes are arranged in an array. The current commercial production method is: use fine cutting and grinding methods or 3D printing technology to process hard materials to form an inverted V-shaped cone array; use the inverted V-shaped cone array of the hard material as a mold, and use the mold to mold other soft organic materials suitable for cell culture through molding to form a V-hole array, that is, a cell culture plate with micropores. As mentioned above, mold making is a key link in the entire cell culture plate production, and it is also the most difficult link.
[0005] At present, the materials used for processing molds using fine cutting and grinding methods are generally glass or ceramics. The inverted V-shaped microstructure of the mold is small (usually between tens of microns and hundreds of microns), and the processing is difficult, inefficient, and costly using fine cutting and grinding methods and 3D printing technology.
