Method for examining a plurality of cultured cells for the presence of a periodic structure of at least one target component contained in the cultured cells

摘要

The method for examining cultured cells for the presence of a periodic structure includes: a step of preparing a cultured cell; a step of fixing the cultured cell; and a step of coloring the fixed cultured cell using a first colorant. A step of stimulating the first colorant to emit light, a step of taking a two-dimensional image (2) of the fixed cultured cell, and a step of extracting from the image (2) of the fixed cultured cell Obtaining a correlation image (3) by cross-correlating the first filtered image and the second filtered image; and-maximum and minimum brightness values in the correlated image (3) Determining whether there is a periodic structure in a fixed cultured cell by determining whether there is a periodic structure of values.
