SIMULATED ANIMAL ORGAN PRODUCTION METHOD, SIMULATED ANIMAL ORGAN, SIMULATED ANIMAL ORGAN KIT, AND MEDICAL DEVICE EVALUATION KIT

摘要

This simulated animal organ production method comprises a molding step for mixing mannan that is used as a main component, a microcapsule-type discoloring agent that changes color depending on temperature and water, gelatinizing the resultant mixture and molding the same to give a molded body. Subsequently, this molded body is frozen to form a fibrous or mesh structure. Thus, the fibrous or mesh structure can hold the discoloring agent, which makes it possible to provide a simulated animal organ that enables the evaluation of heating effects thereon on the basis of the discoloration state thereof and that is highly similar to an actual animal organ.
