Abstract
A cell-spreading device may include a microchamber chip having a microchamber capable of enclosing and retaining a cell, a channel-forming frame united with the microchamber chip to form a channel on the microchamber, an inlet provided in the channel-forming frame to allow a cell suspension to flow into the channel, and an outlet provided in the channel-forming frame to allow the cell suspension, which has been allowed to flow into the channel through the inlet, to flow out from the channel. When an aperture of the microchamber is projected perpendicularly to a longitudinal width of the microchamber chip, the void ratio that is a ratio of the sum total of voids to the longitudinal width is not more than 5%, the void being a length of a portion where the projected aperture of the microchamber is not present against the longitudinal width.
