In this paper, a ''micro-macro'' integrated planar MEMS tactile sensor
with two different scale tactile sensors are presented. The ''micro-scale''
tactile sensor detects ''micro surface shape'' and ''micro-area frictional
force'' that are generated and detected at a fingerprint in the human's
fingertip skin. On the other hand, the integrated ''macro-scale'' tactile
sensor detects ''overal contact pressure'' and ''macro-area sliding friction''
that are detected by wide-area of skin.

We propose a novel method for sampling single cells and intracellular biomolecules
without losing spatial information in tissues or in single cells, using
Si nano-blade array device. Pushing the device physically against cells
or a sliced tissue allows us to dissect and keep them in the space walled
by the blade structures. The biomolecules are extracted in each space are
collected with ligand molecules immobilized on the blades or a micropipette
approaching from the backside of the device.

ON-SITE MANIPULATION OF SINGLE DNA MOLECULES USING OPTICALLY-DRIVEN MICROCHOPSTICKS

This paper reports a novel DNA manipulation technique for the analysis
of single DNA molecules under a fluorescence microscope. We successfully
manipulated single DNA molecules using two microstructures driven by two
laser beams, where we handled them like 'chopsticks'. This manipulation
technique allows the imaging of single DNA molecules with its intact state,
which will lead to the nanotechnology-based DNA analysis.
