System for forming a reinforcing layer, method for forming a reinforcing layer, and program

Abstract

A system for forming a reinforcing layer is provided that allows for uniform formation of the laminate. [Solution] The formation system 100 includes a first application unit 111 that applies fibrinogen liquid L1 to a sheet-shaped cell culture 10, and a second application unit 112 that applies thrombin liquid L2 to the sheet-shaped cell culture, and is further equipped with a processing unit 110 for forming a reinforcing layer made of fibrin gel on the sheet-shaped cell culture, an imaging unit 120 that images the sheet-shaped cell culture to which the fibrinogen liquid has been applied, a detection unit 131 that detects the thickness of the fibrinogen liquid applied by the first application unit based on image information acquired by the imaging unit, and a determination unit 132 that determines whether the thickness distribution of the fibrinogen liquid is uniform based on the thickness distribution of the fibrinogen liquid detected by the detection unit.
