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.
POSTER SESSON: T-059 NANOBLADE ARRAY FOR SPATIAL DISSECTION OF SINGLE CELLS AND TISSUES D. Kagawa1, M. Kusumoto1, Y. Takemura1, H. Takao1, F. Shimokawa1, and K. Terao1,2 1Kagawa University, JAPAN and 2Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), JAPAN
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.
POSTER SESSON: M-061 ON-SITE MANIPULATION OF SINGLE DNA MOLECULES USING OPTICALLY-DRIVEN MICROCHOPSTICKS R. Inukai1, H. Takao1, F. Shimokawa1, and K. Terao1,2 1Kagawa University, JAPAN and 2Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), JAPAN
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.
