A novel method of cultivating cardiac myocytes in agarose microchamber chips for studying cell synchronization

We have developed a new method that enables agar microstructures to be used to cultivate cardiac myocyte cells in a manner that allows their connection patterns to be controlled. Non-contact three-dimensional photo-thermal etching with a 1064-nm infrared focused laser beam was used to form the shape...
