[0032] In particular, the utility model provides a multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, which is suitable for culturing three-dimensional cell spheres, thereby achieving cell sphere culture with simple pretreatment, low economic cost and easy operation.

[0033] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a multi-concave cell culture sheet according to an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 2 is along Figure 1 A schematic cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line AA in FIG. Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of a clamping portion according to an embodiment of the utility model. In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, including a culture sheet body 10 and at least one clamping portion 20, wherein a plurality of downwardly recessed concave surfaces 11 are arranged on the top surface of the culture sheet body 10, and the concave surfaces 11 are used to culture cell balls, and the clamping portion 20 is an inverted convex structure, and each clamping portion 20 is arranged to protrude upward from the top surface of the culture sheet body 10, and the clamping portion 20 includes a connected connecting portion 21 and a limiting portion 22, and the two ends of the connecting portion 21 are used to connect the culture sheet body 10 and the limiting portion 22, and the limiting portion 22 protrudes from the side surface of the connecting portion 21, so that the limiting portion 22 forms a limiting surface 221 facing downward, so as to limit the tweezers clamped by the connecting portion 21, so as to prevent the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 from falling due to insufficient friction on the surface of the connecting portion 21 when being clamped by the tweezers, thereby avoiding the loss of experimental materials.

[0034] In this embodiment, the connection part 21 and the limiting part 22 are detachably connected, a positioning column is provided at the top of the connection part 21, and a positioning hole is provided at the bottom of the limiting part 22. The positioning column and the positioning hole cooperate to fix the limiting part 22 and the connection part 21.

[0035] Figure 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a clamping portion according to another embodiment of the utility model. Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram of a clamping portion according to another embodiment of the utility model.

[0036] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in another embodiment, a groove 211 is provided on the peripheral side of one end of the connection part 21 close to the limiting part 22. Specifically, the groove 211 is provided on the connection part 21, and the tweezers clamp the position of the groove 211 of the connection part 21 when clamping the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, and abut against the limiting surface 221 of the limiting part 22 when clamping the connection part 21. The groove 211 and the limiting part 22 both play a limiting role for the tweezers, so as to prevent the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 from shaking when the tweezers clamp the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, causing the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 to slip. Here, the depth of the groove 211 is any value in the range of 0.2-0.6mm, that is, the depth of the groove 211 can be 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm or 0.6mm, or any other value in the range of 0.2-0.6mm, which is not specifically limited here and depends on the actual situation.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the surface of the connecting portion 21 is provided with an anti-skid rubber sleeve 200. Specifically, the anti-skid rubber sleeve 200 is sleeved on the surface of one end of the connecting portion 21 close to the limiting portion 22 to improve the anti-skid performance of the connecting portion 21 and prevent the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 from slipping due to insufficient friction of the connecting portion 21 when the tweezers clamp the connecting portion 21.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the surface of the groove 211 is provided with an anti-slip feature. Specifically, the surface of the groove 211 of the connecting portion 21 is provided with an anti-slip feature, which further increases the friction force on the surface of the connecting portion 21, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the connecting portion 21. Here, the anti-slip feature can be an anti-slip thread, an anti-slip pattern, an anti-slip coating or other anti-slip features that can play an anti-slip role, which are not specifically limited here and are determined according to actual conditions.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the connection portion 21 and the limiting portion 22 are movably connected, the connection method is threaded connection, and the thread of the connection portion 21 is set to have an anti-slip feature. Specifically, the connection portion 21 is provided with a thread, and the limiting portion 22 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the thread of the connection portion 21, so that the connection portion 21 and the limiting portion 22 are movably connected through the thread. In addition, the height of the thread of the connection portion 21 is greater than the height of the threaded hole of the limiting portion 22, so that after the connection portion 21 and the limiting portion 22 are fixedly connected, the redundant thread of the connection portion 21 serves as an anti-slip feature to increase the friction of the connection portion 21, thereby preventing the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 from slipping due to insufficient friction of the connection portion 21 when the tweezers clamp the connection portion 21.

[0040] In this embodiment, the limiting portion 22 is cylindrical, and the connecting portion 21 is cylindrical. Specifically, the diameter of the limiting portion 22 is larger than the diameter of the connecting portion 21, so as to prevent the connecting portion 21 from sliding when the connecting portion 21 is clamped, so that the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 can maintain balance in the horizontal direction, so as to avoid the outflow of substances on the surface of the culture sheet body 10, thereby avoiding unnecessary losses, and facilitating the collection of the obtained cell spheres into the required container. The diameter of the limiting portion 22 is any value in the range of 1.0-2.5 mm, and the height of the limiting portion 22 is any value in the range of 0.4-0.6 mm, that is, the diameter of the limiting portion 22 can be 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm, or any other value in the range of 1.0-2.5 mm, and the height of the connecting portion 21 can be 0.4 mm, 0.45 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.55 mm or 0.6 mm, or any other value in the range of 0.4-0.6 mm. The diameter of the connecting portion 21 is any value in the range of 0.5-2.0 mm, and the height of the connecting portion 21 is any value in the range of 1.0-3.0 mm, that is, the diameter of the connecting portion 21 can be 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm or 2.0 mm, or any other value in the range of 0.5-2.0 mm, and the height of the connecting portion 21 can be 1.0 mm, 2.0 mm or 3.0 mm, or any other value in the range of 1.0-3.0 mm.

[0041] In other embodiments, the limiting portion 22 may be a cuboid or a cube, and the connecting portion 21 may be a cuboid or a cube.

[0042] In this embodiment, there is one clamping portion 20, and the clamping portion 20 is located at the center of the culture sheet body 10. Specifically, the clamping portion 20 is disposed at the center of the culture sheet body 10, so that when the clamping portion 20 of the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 is clamped, the culture sheet body 10 is kept balanced in the horizontal direction, and unnecessary losses caused by the outflow of fluid on the culture sheet body 10 are avoided.

[0043] In this embodiment, the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 further includes a convex ring 40, which protrudes upward from the edge of the top surface of the culture sheet body 10, so that the convex ring 40 and the surface of the culture sheet body 10 are surrounded to form a receiving space. Specifically, the convex ring 40 is arranged along the periphery of the culture sheet body 10, and is surrounded to form a receiving space with the surface of the culture sheet body 10 to assist the cell spheres to fall into the central area of ​​the culture sheet body 10, to prevent the cell spheres from sliding off the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, resulting in some cells not participating in the sphere formation, thereby improving the culture effect of the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the height of the protruding ring 40 is 0.5 mm.

[0045] In this embodiment, the concave surface 11 has a preset height and its bottom is configured as a sphere. Specifically, the preset height of the concave surface 11 is any value in the range of 0-2.0 mm. The height of the concave surface 11 can be 0 mm, 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm or 2.0 mm, or any other value in the range of 0-2.0 mm, that is, the concave surface 11 may not be set with a preset height. The bottom of the concave surface 11 is configured as a sphere to form a cell sphere with the best culture effect. In other embodiments, the bottom of the concave surface 11 can be arc-shaped, rectangular, conical, or other shapes.

[0046] In this embodiment, the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 is an integrated injection-molded structure, which is easy to manufacture and has low production costs, and can expand the production scale of the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, thereby changing the traditional cell culture method. In addition, the injection molding method can adjust the size of the cell culture sheet according to demand.

[0047] In this embodiment, the smoothness of the multi-concave cell culture sheet 100 is at the nanometer level, which greatly reduces the adsorption of cells on the surface of the clampable multi-concave cell culture sheet 100, allowing the cells to slide smoothly toward the concave surface 11, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of cell sphering.

[0048] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0049] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
