Description

  The present invention relates to a technique for inserting a pharmaceutical agent for the purpose of treatment or health into a human skin surface, that is, a transdermal dosage technique, and a technique for inserting a functional material into a human skin surface for cosmetic purposes. In other words, it relates to a transdermal nutritional supplement and its supplement administration technology, as well as skin beauty and modification technology, and further, a functional chip for extracting in-vivo information and sensing individual identification signals in the human skin surface In particular, the present invention relates to a micro-implement for insertion into a skin surface and a manufacturing method thereof. Further, the present invention provides a sugar material component assembly in which a substrate or substrate sheet made of pullulan, or a composite sugar material of pullulan and maltose and a sugar material component are brought into contact with each other, or the sugar material components are brought into contact with each other. It is about the method.

  For transdermal administration, conventionally, a drug is applied to the surface of a metal or plastic microneedle (hereinafter referred to as “fine needle”), the microneedle is inserted into the skin surface, and the applied drug is applied. I have taken the method of penetrating into the skin. However, with fine needles based on industrial materials made of insoluble materials such as metals or plastics, there are not a few accidents in which fine needles remain in the body due to carelessness during administration. It was an alarming problem. In addition, even if a pharmaceutical agent or functional material is applied to a fine needle or a mixture thereof is mixed, there are quantitative limits on the pharmaceutical agent or functional material that can be physically mounted on the fine needle. However, there is a limit to allowing a sufficient amount of a pharmaceutical agent or functional material to penetrate. Furthermore, as represented by the problem of disposal of medical instruments, there is a problem that a great deal of environmental load is applied to the disposal of fine needles.

  In addition, with regard to cosmetic techniques, conventionally, there have been techniques such as application of a cosmetic agent (functional material) to the skin surface, ultrasonic assistance for promoting the transdermal administration, and transdermal administration by electrophoresis. However, in any case, due to the protective properties of the skin, a sufficient amount of beauty agent could not be administered, which was an important issue. As for the skin surface modification technology, coloring materials have been administered to the surface of the skin on the outer side of the upper arm or eyebrows since ancient times, but this treatment is very painful and also requires the use of a needle. It required skilled skills and there were also safety issues. And in the administration technology of nutrients and nutritional supplements into the body, administration was limited to oral administration. Therefore, due to problems with taste, chewing, gastrointestinal digestion and absorption, if they are solid, sugar coating The degree of freedom of nutrients and the like is limited due to fine graining, and when it is in a liquid form, its use is almost limited to a low-concentration water-soluble lysate. There was a problem that nutritional supplements could not be added.

  Furthermore, skin-embedded electronic chips, so-called functional chips, used to extract in-vivo information and sense individual identification signals, are conventionally inserted by opening the skin using a medical instrument such as a scalpel. As a result, the tip is pushed out of the body as the skin surface is healed, and it is difficult to keep the functional tip in the skin in a stable state, which is an important problem.

  On the other hand, in the fine needles based on sugar, which is a material safe for the human body and friendly to the environment, the injection molding method often used for resin processing and the pulling method used for yarn production are used as the manufacturing method. Therefore, due to the characteristics of the manufacturing method and the crystallinity, physical and chemical properties of the sugar used, it is almost impossible to mold fine needles with high processing accuracy and high strength. Met. The strength mentioned here is the strength required when the fine needle is used on the human body, which is comparable to the strength required for the metal or plastic fine needle used for the human body.

In such a development situation, as a development example, there is a micropile in which fine needles for skin mainly composed of a carbohydrate such as maltose are assembled and a manufacturing method thereof (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Although this micropile is certainly a fine needle that is easy to dispose of and highly safe, it has high moisture absorption and crystal grains because it contains only carbohydrates such as general maltose. Due to the boundary, there is a problem in that the strength as a structure is small, the stability is poor, and the processing accuracy is low.
JP 2003-238347 A

Other development examples include micro-perforators (for example, see Patent Document 2) including needles based on water-soluble polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na). With this percutaneous microneedle, it is almost impossible to perform microfabrication to keep the needle tip to a diameter of 30 μm or less due to the polymer material. It is difficult to insert into the skin, and even if it can be inserted painfully by pressurization, there is a problem in that it takes a considerable amount of time to dissolve in the skin surface because the base material is a polymer material. It was.
JP-T-2006-500973

  In the above-mentioned conventional techniques, in the case of transdermal administration technology, a fine needle made of an insoluble material such as metal or plastic has a serious safety problem that the fine needle remains in the living body, and is mounted on the fine needle. There is a problem in that there are quantitative limits on the pharmaceutical agents and functional materials that can be produced, and there is a problem in that the disposal process places a great environmental burden. Also, in the case of cosmetic technology, there is a problem that a sufficient amount of cosmetic agent cannot be administered to the skin due to the protective properties of the skin even by application to the skin, and in the case of skin surface modification technology However, in the case of a technique for administration of nutritional supplements and nutritional supplements into the body, the administration was limited to oral administration, so that they were in solid form. Sometimes the degree of freedom of nutrients, etc. is limited, and when it is in liquid form, its use is almost limited to low-concentration water-soluble lysates, and there is a problem that a wide range of sufficient amounts of nutrients and nutritional supplements cannot be introduced. there were. Furthermore, in the case of a technique for mounting a skin embedding functional chip used for extraction of in-vivo information, the chip is pushed out of the body as the skin surface is healed, and the functional chip is mounted in the skin in a stable state. There was a problem that it was difficult to keep.

  On the other hand, an injection molding method or the like was used as a manufacturing method of microneedles using sugar as a base material, but due to the characteristics of the manufacturing method and the properties of the sugar used, the processing accuracy is high and the strength is high. The problem was that it was almost impossible to mold large microneedles. In addition, there is a micropile in which fine needles for skin with only saccharides such as maltose as the main component material are assembled, but this is because only saccharides such as general maltose are the main component materials, There are problems of high moisture absorption, low strength as a structure due to crystal grain boundaries, low processing accuracy, and lack of stability. Furthermore, there are fine needles for transcutaneous use that use water-soluble polymers, but this is almost impossible, and it is difficult to insert the needle into the skin. However, since the base material is a polymer material, there is a problem in that a considerable time is required for dissolution within the skin surface. And the conventional metal mold | die was for injection molding, and it shape | molded by pushing into the needle hole reversed with respect to the needle | hook. Also in casting (casting method), the shape of the molding was shaped on the bottom surface of the mold. In any case, there is a limit to the accuracy of the needle tip of about 30 μm because of the limit due to the fluid phenomenon at the time of molding (the turbulence or vortex phenomenon that does not flow into the details, that is, the spiral phenomenon), which is a problem. Furthermore, since it is usually a single mold, it is impossible to form with fine protrusions due to mechanical blurring (play) during injection molding and casting, which is also a problem.

  The present invention provides a micro-implement for insertion into the skin surface, which has a structure having a fine cantilever made of a soluble material in the skin at the upper end of the side surface of the substrate or the surface of the substrate sheet. In addition, a micro-implement for insertion into the skin surface in which a functional chip is mounted on a fine cantilever, and further insertion into the skin surface containing a functional material such as a pharmaceutical agent, a nutritional agent and its auxiliary agent, a cosmetic material, and a color material It is an object of the present invention to provide a microimplement for insertion into the skin surface and a method for manufacturing the same.

It is what.

  In the microimplement for insertion into the skin surface of the present invention, since the fine cantilever inserted into the skin surface is based on a soluble material in the skin, it dissolves quickly within the skin surface, so it is highly safe and painless. Yes, the method of use is simple, and since functional materials such as pharmaceutical agents, beauty agents, nutrients and their supplements, and color materials can be freely contained in fine cantilevers, in these agents and materials Since there are few type restrictions and quantitative limits, and the cantilever has a constricted shape part, when the microimplement is inserted into the skin surface, the cantilever is easily broken at the constricted shape part, and the microimplementation can be easily and safely performed. It has the characteristic effect that it can be inserted into the skin surface. If a cantilever equipped with a functional tip is used, the functional tip can be easily and painlessly attached to the skin surface in a stable state, and the skin solubilizing agent that is the base material of the cantilever is anhydrous and amorphous. By using maltose, or a composite sugar material of anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan, high safety to the human body, no crystal grain boundaries, high strength as a structure, high processing accuracy, high stability cantilever Furthermore, by using a saccharide as the substrate or the substrate of the substrate sheet, the water-solubility of the substrate is used, and there is an effect that the environmental load is extremely small in the disposal process.

  In addition to the above effects, in the micro-implement of the present invention, since the cantilever has a substantially conical half-cracked shape, it is easy to mount a functional chip on a half-cracked surface that forms a horizontal plane at room temperature, The heat resistance of the functional chip is not so required for mounting at room temperature, and furthermore, the surface of the functional chip is coated with maltose, maltose and pullulan complex sugar material, polyethylene, etc. This has the effect that the adhesion with the one-side crack surface (the mounting surface of the functional chip) becomes strong. Further, in the micro-implement of the present invention, it is possible to reduce the insertion resistance of the cantilever into the skin surface by enclosing the functional chip in the cantilever. In this case, the heat resistance of the functional chip is required. However, it is possible to take measures against heat by coating the surface of the above-mentioned functional chip with maltose, maltose and pullulan complex sugar material, polyethylene, etc. Furthermore, since the functional chip is included in the cantilever It also has the characteristic effect of being less susceptible to physical damage.

  In the microimplement manufacturing method of the present invention, in the microimplement mold constituted by the micromold head for the cantilever and the substrate mold having the concave portion of the inverted shape of the substrate, the microimplement mold is a temperature control mechanism. This cantilever micro mold head and substrate mold have a mechanism that can be moved independently, so it is possible to easily manufacture a substrate-type micro-implement with high processing accuracy and high structural strength. It is. Further, in this manufacturing method, since the micro mold head for cantilever having a temperature control mechanism has a mechanism that can move vertically with respect to the surface of the substrate sheet, the substrate sheet-type micro die having high processing accuracy and high structural strength. There is an effect that the implement can be easily manufactured. Furthermore, in the present invention, the bottom of the casting mold is not used, the limit of the fluid is avoided, and the protrusion is opened using the end (surface part) of the mold, so that the fluid can flow. In addition, a separation mold is used which separates the protrusion (needle part) and the base part, eliminates mechanical blurring and forms (releases) the fine part in advance, and then releases the base part. This has the characteristic effect of overcoming the problems of conventional molds.

  In the method for assembling a sugar material part of the present invention, at least one of the two sugar material parts is composed of pullulan or a composite sugar material of pullulan and maltose. These sugar material parts can be brought into contact with each other and welded, and the sugar material parts having high structural strength can be easily assembled. Further, in the assembling method of the present invention, the sugar material part is a substrate or a substrate sheet made of pullulan or the like, so that the other sugar material part is brought into contact with the upper end portion of the substrate side surface or the substrate sheet surface and welded. The sugar material part having a high structural strength can be easily assembled. Furthermore, in this assembly method, if the other sugar material part is a cantilever, and the soluble material in the skin of this cantilever is anhydrous amorphous maltose, or a complex sugar material of anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan, the structural strength is large, It also has a characteristic effect that a microimplement for insertion into the skin surface with high processing accuracy can be easily assembled.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the microimplement for insertion into the skin surface, the manufacturing method thereof, and the sugar material component assembling method according to the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

  In the present invention, the cantilever means structurally a cantilever, and the tip end of the cantilever is a free end, and the end where the cantilever is in contact with the substrate or the substrate sheet is a fixed end. The shape of the cantilever is a half of a pyramid that is close to a quadrangular pyramid, a polygonal pyramid, a cone, etc. (that is, a substantially pyramid) cut by a plane that passes through a perpendicular extending from the apex of the cone to the bottom of the cone, It is in the shape of a single crack, and in the present invention, this is referred to as a substantially split shape of a cone. However, the cutting of the substantially pyramid in the plane is cut so that the volume thereof is almost halved, in other words, the plane is divided so that the bottom surface of the cone is divided almost in half of the bottom area. Just go down. For example, when the substantially conical body is a substantially conical body, the bottom surface of the conical body is almost circular, and if the plane passes through a line indicating the diameter of the circular shape, the half-cracked shape (the cantilever shape at this time is shown in FIG. 3). ) Is about half the volume of the cone. Also, for example, when the substantially pyramid is a substantially quadrangular pyramid, the bottom surface of the cone is substantially a quadrangle, and if the plane passes through the diagonal of the quadrangle, its half-broken shape (the cantilever at this time is shown in FIG. 4) Is approximately half the volume of the quadrangular pyramid, but if the cone bottom area and the cone volume are halved, the plane may pass through any line other than the diagonal line of the cone base. Therefore, since the one-sided surface in the one-sided shape of the substantially pyramid is horizontal, it is possible to easily mount the functional chip on the one-sided surface.

  The size of the cantilever according to the present invention is such that the longest diameter of the fine tip of the cantilever, that is, the longest diameter in a shape (substantially polygonal or substantially circular) when the apex of the substantially pyramid is viewed directly in front is 0.1 μm to The range of 100 μm is preferable, but the production is physically impossible at 0.1 μm or less, and the physical resistance into the skin surface is large at 100 μm or more, and further, stinging is felt. Further, the length from the tip to the end of the cantilever (that is, the length of the above-mentioned perpendicular) is preferably in the range of 50 μm to 5 mm. However, if the length is 50 μm or less, the cantilever cannot reach the deep part in the skin surface. It is because the cantilever is too long and the structural strength cannot be secured at 5 mm or more. The insertion of the microimplement into the skin surface of the present invention substantially means that a cantilever is inserted from the skin surface into the skin, and the skin has an epidermis (including the stratum corneum) located on the surface. There is an underlying dermis and an underlying subcutaneous tissue. Depending on the purpose of insertion, the insertion site in the skin should be specified, and the length from the tip to the end of the cantilever can be determined accordingly. .

  In the present invention, the substrate and the substrate sheet refer to a support necessary for the above-mentioned cantilever to fix its end, but the cantilever fixes its end to the upper end of the side surface of the substrate ( 1) and a cantilever fixing its end to the surface of the substrate sheet (shown in FIG. 2). This is called a micro-implement for insertion. FIG. 3 is an enlarged perspective view of a part of the cantilever in the substrate type micro-implement shown in FIG. 1. This is a case where the cantilever has a substantially conical half-divided shape, and the bottom surface thereof is almost half. Shows a circle. FIG. 4 shows an enlarged perspective view of a part of the cantilever in the substrate sheet type micro-implement shown in FIG. 2. This is a case where the cantilever is substantially in the shape of a half of a quadrangular pyramid, and its bottom surface is Shows a triangle. The cross section of the cantilever shown in FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. 5. In particular, in the substrate type micro-implement, the cantilever half-break surface 7 and the substrate top surface 8 are connected with almost no step as shown in FIG. In addition, in the substrate sheet type micro-implement, it is preferable that the one-side crack surface of the cantilever be set perpendicular to the surface of the substrate sheet. Further, the contact surface with the substrate sheet in the mold head for the cantilever and the substrate sheet surface are usually Are parallel to each other, but by tilting the parallel contact surface with respect to the substrate sheet surface, it is possible to stand the one-side crack surface of the cantilever at an angle other than perpendicular to the substrate sheet surface. The shape and size of the substrate and the substrate sheet are not particularly limited, and the shape and size may be specified according to the purpose of use of the microimplement for insertion into the skin surface. Furthermore, the micro-implement of the present invention may have a structure having one or more cantilevers on a substrate or a substrate sheet depending on the purpose of use. Here, the term “implement” is used to mean mounting and mounting in the design field of a semiconductor integrated circuit, but in the present invention, it is referred to as a tool (that is, a mounting tool) used for mounting a cantilever on the skin surface. Meaning.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the cantilever according to the present invention preferably has a constricted shape portion from the tip portion to the end portion. This is because the microimplement is inserted into the skin surface. In order to leave the cantilever inserted in the skin surface more easily, more stably and in the skin, a constricted portion is formed between the tip portion and the end portion of the cantilever, and the cantilever is formed in this shape portion. This is to make it easier to break. Thereby, it is possible to easily and safely insert the microimplement into the skin surface, and then the cantilever, which is a solubilizing agent in the skin, quickly dissolves within the skin surface. The constricted shape includes a stepped constriction and a constricted constriction, but the constricted shape is not particularly limited.

  The substrate sheet in the present invention refers to a substrate in the form of a sheet, and therefore the base material that is the material thereof is the same as the substrate. The substrate in the present invention and the substrate in the substrate sheet are preferably one or more selected from saccharides, cellulose, solid starch, paper, wood, plastic, and metal. Examples of the saccharide include glucose, fructose, galactose, monosaccharide, and maltose, sucrose, lactose, cellobiose, trehalose, and the like. Examples thereof include sugar alcohols such as maltitol and reduced starch syrup, and polysaccharides such as pullulan. However, water-soluble saccharides are preferable from the viewpoint of easy disposal. Of these, the substrate sheet is preferably composed of pullulan, or a complex sugar material of pullulan and maltose, among sugars, because the cantilever can be strongly fixed using the adhesiveness of pullulan. is there. The reason for using maltose is that it is easy to make a complex sugar material by mixing with pullulan, and it is cheap and easily available. In this case, the mixing ratio of pullulan and maltose is not particularly limited.

  The skin soluble material in the present invention literally means a material that can be dissolved in the skin, for example, biocompatible materials such as sugars, chitin and chitosan, biodegradable materials such as polylactic acid, and the like. Among them, saccharides having the highest dissolution rate in vivo are preferable. Among saccharides, anhydrous amorphous maltose, or a complex sugar material of anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan is preferable in terms of safety to the human body, immediate solubility in the skin, and there is no grain boundary. In addition, a cantilever with high processing accuracy can be obtained, which is preferable. Here, anhydrous amorphous maltose is maltose from which water of crystallization has been removed, and it is amorphous (amorphous), but since this anhydrous amorphous maltose is low molecular weight and anhydrous, pullulan It is easy to mix with such a polysaccharide aqueous solution, that is, when anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan aqueous solution are mixed, the hydrated pullulan molecule is easily taken into the maltose and a complex sugar material with a good mixing state is easily obtained. When this is used as a base material for cantilevers, as with anhydrous amorphous maltose alone, there is no grain boundary, so it is possible not only to obtain a cantilever with high processing accuracy but also solubility in the skin surface. In addition, the adhesion between the bottom surface of the cantilever and the side surface of the substrate or the surface of the substrate sheet becomes extremely easy due to the adhesion of pullulan. In this case, the mixing ratio of anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan is not particularly limited. The above-mentioned immediate solubility in the skin means that the dissolution in the skin is extremely fast.From the viewpoint of safety and convenience after inserting a cantilever made of a soluble material in the skin into the skin surface, The cantilever is preferably dissolved in about 60 seconds at the latest, and more preferably in about 30 seconds at the latest.

  The cantilever in the present invention preferably contains one or more selected from protein, DNA, pharmaceutical agent, nutrient, nutritional supplement, cosmetic material, color material, metal, metal oxide, and microcapsule. . Here, in the case of proteins, there are general proteins such as albumin, actin, and myosin, and pharmaceutical proteins for treatment, etc. In the case of DNA, there are pure DNA that is not encapsulated in cells. Although there are analgesics effective in transdermal administration, insulin effective in treating diabetes, lidocaine as a local anesthetic, chlorhexine gluconate effective in periodontal disease, etc., these are not particularly limited. In the case of nutritional supplements, there are various sugars such as glucose and dextrin. In the case of nutritional supplements, vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and calcium are absorbed. Casein has an accelerating effect, and in the case of cosmetics, moisturizing agents such as hyaluronic acid, anti-smudge agents such as α-arbutin, magnesium ascorbate phosphate, ellagic acid, and hydroquinone with melanin pigment removal ability In the case of color materials, there are various natural pigments such as pigments for internal use, tartardin, cosmetic pigments, gardenia red pigments, gardenia yellow pigments, etc. In the case of metal oxides, there are titanium oxide, iron oxide, barium sulfate, etc. In the case of microcapsules, various pharmaceutical agents Various nutrients, various color materials there are such microcapsules encapsulating like, they are not particularly limited. FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram showing a state in which a normal cantilever 18 and a cantilever 19 having a constricted portion are inserted into the skin surface of a substrate type microimplement containing a functional material. The cantilever 19 having the constricted portion is easier to penetrate into the skin surface deeper than the normal cantilever 18 by the amount of resistance of the constricted portion. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing the state after both cantilevers are inserted. Before both cantilevers are dissolved in the skin, a cantilever having a constricted portion is naturally used. The cantilever remains deeper in the skin surface than when the cantilever is used, that is, the cantilever 21 remains deeper in the skin surface than the cantilever 20. Furthermore, after these cantilevers dissolve and disappear, the functional material diffuses and penetrates, but the area is naturally proportional to the insertion position of the cantilever, and the diffusion and penetration area 23 is more than the diffusion and penetration area 22. It is in a deep position.

  The cantilever in the present invention has a structure in which a functional chip is mounted on the surface thereof (see FIG. 7) and a structure in which a functional chip is mounted in the inside thereof. It is easy to mount a functional chip on one side that forms a horizontal plane, and because it is mounted at room temperature, the heat resistance of the functional chip is not so required, and the surface of the functional chip is made of maltose, maltose and pullulan. By coating with a composite sugar material, polyethylene, etc., the adhesion between the functional chip and the cantilever is strong. In the latter case, it is possible to reduce the insertion resistance of the cantilever into the skin surface by enclosing the functional chip in the cantilever. In this case, the heat resistance of the functional chip is required. By covering the surface of the above-mentioned functional chip with maltose, maltose and pullulan complex sugar material, polyethylene, etc., it is possible to take measures against heat, and further, since the functional chip is contained in the cantilever, physical damage It has the characteristic effect that it is difficult to receive. The functional chip in the present invention includes a semiconductor chip, an integrated circuit chip, a temperature sensor chip, a protein chip, a DNA-containing chip, a pharmaceutical agent-containing chip, a nutrient-containing chip, a nutritional supplement-containing chip, a cosmetic material-containing chip, and a color material-containing chip. One or more functional chips selected from a chip, a metal-containing chip, and a microcapsule-containing chip are preferable. Furthermore, it is preferable that the surface of the functional chip is coated with one material selected from maltose, maltose and pullulan complex sugar material, polyethylene, and polypropylene. The substrate of the above chip is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of the affinity of the substrate used in the present invention, a saccharide is used as a base and contains a pharmaceutical agent, a functional material and the like. For example, maltose, anhydrous non-crystalline maltose, and a complex sugar material thereof with pullulan can be used as the saccharide. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram showing a state where a normal cantilever 12 and a cantilever 13 having a constricted portion are inserted into the skin surface of the substrate type microimplement, but the cantilever 13 having a constricted portion is shown. This is easier to penetrate into the skin surface than the normal cantilever 12 because the resistance of the constricted shape portion is smaller. FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram showing the state after the insertion of both cantilevers. Both cantilevers dissolve and disappear in the skin, and then leave their chips. Of these tips, when a cantilever having a constricted portion is used, the tip remains naturally at a deeper position in the skin surface than when a normal cantilever is used. That is, tip 15 is more than tip 14. Remains deep in the skin surface.

  In the microimplement manufacturing method of the present invention, a micro mold head for a cantilever having a concave portion of an inverted shape of a fine cantilever at an upper surface end is an anhydrous amorphous maltose or a composite of anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan. It is a fine mold for molding cantilevers as sugar materials, a head with a mold function that can be applied to the molding of fine shapes of cantilevers with a mechanism that can be finely driven to release cantilevers. The substrate mold having the inverted concave portion is a substrate mold having a shape that can be formed into a substrate that is a support for the cantilever and can be incorporated into a micro mold head. FIG. 13 shows a mold head for a cantilever. And a schematic diagram of the substrate mold. The temperature control mechanism of the micro-implement mold is a temperature control mechanism capable of rapidly heating and melting the above-mentioned base material formed by the micro-mold head and cooling and solidifying it. With the mechanism that can move the mold independently, it is possible to drive only the micro mold head in preference to forming a fine cantilever shape, and after releasing the cantilever and forming, only the substrate can be separated by separate drive It is such a mechanism. As a result, the substrate type micro-implement can be manufactured. Furthermore, the mechanism that the micro mold head for a cantilever has can move vertically with respect to the surface of the substrate sheet is to form one cantilever in order to provide one or more cantilevers perpendicular to the surface of the substrate sheet. After that, as a method for moving to the next cantilever forming, the micro mold head is once retracted in the direction perpendicular to the sheet and then moved to the position of the next cantilever. FIG. 14 shows a schematic diagram of a micro mold head and a substrate sheet, in which a temperature control heater is used as a temperature control mechanism and a drive stage is used as the movable mechanism. Thereby, a substrate sheet type microimplement can be manufactured. Although the temperature control mechanism in the present invention is not particularly limited, any temperature control mechanism can be used as long as it can control the temperature from about 50 ° C. to about 200 ° C. and can maintain a constant temperature.

  The present invention will be specifically described below with reference to examples. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

  When manufacturing the substrate type micro-implement having the shape shown in FIG. 1, first, a round shape having a bottom surface of 200 μm in diameter, and a substantially conical piece having a perpendicular length from the apex to the bottom surface of 550 μm (part 1) In order to produce a cantilever having a bottom surface of a semicircle having a diameter of 200 μm, the above-mentioned substantially conical body is formed on the upper end portion along the vertical side of a stainless steel plate (vertical length 15 mm, horizontal length 5 mm, thickness 1 mm). 4 indented parts of the inverted shape of the half-cracked shape are dug by machining, and the deepest end of the cantilever has a substantially circular shape (diameter 0.3 μm). A cantilever mold head was fabricated by microfabrication using Next, in order to fabricate a rectangular parallelepiped substrate having a length of 10 mm, a width of 50 mm, and a thickness of 1 mm, a substrate mold having a concave portion of the inverted shape of the above-described substrate is fabricated based on a predetermined stainless steel plate. A combination of a cantilever mold head and a substrate mold having the shape shown in FIG. 13 was produced. When the substrate mold with the mold head removed is viewed from directly above, it has a U-shape. Next, this U-shaped mold substrate was combined with the above-mentioned cantilever mold head without a recess to obtain a B-shaped substrate mold. As the substrate material, a mixture of maltose and pullulan, which is a saccharide (a mixture of maltose 50% by weight and pullulan 50% by weight, dissolved at 105 ° C.) and maintained at 105 ° C. The substrate raw material was poured into a mold for the substrate until the thickness of the substrate became 1 mm, and the substrate was gradually cooled to 80 ° C. to produce a substrate. Next, the mold head having no recess is removed from the substrate mold, the mold head for the cantilever and the substrate mold including the substrate are combined, and only the mold head is held at 105 ° C. An anhydrous amorphous maltose dissolved at 105 ° C. was poured into the concave portion of the mold head to produce a cantilever, and then slowly cooled to room temperature to produce the microimplement shown in FIG. As described above, at the upper end of the side surface of the substrate having a rectangular parallelepiped shape with a length of 10 mm, a width of 50 mm, and a thickness of 1 mm, a circular shape having a bottom surface diameter of 200 μm and a perpendicular length from the top to the bottom surface of 550 μm A cantilever having a half-shaped body shape (the bottom surface is a semicircle having a diameter of 200 μm), and four cantilevers having a substantially circular shape (diameter of 0.3 μm) arranged in the longitudinal direction of the substrate. A substrate type micro-implement was assembled and manufactured. However, since FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram, the size of the cantilever and the substrate are not relatively matched. In this production, the substrate and the cantilever raw material were used after being melted at 105 ° C., but these raw materials may be put in the mold and the mold head held at 105 ° C. while maintaining the particle state. Also, from the beginning, using a cantilever mold head and substrate mold having the shape shown in FIG. 13, these are held at 105 ° C., and raw materials are poured into the cantilever and substrate micro-implement at a time. In this case, the cantilever and the substrate are made of the same material.

  In manufacturing the substrate sheet type micro-implement having the shape shown in FIG. 2, first, 30% by weight of pullulan and 30% by weight of maltose are mixed together, and then 40% of water is added to create a viscous state. A board sheet having a length of 10 mm, a width of 10 mm, and a thickness of 0.5 mm (with a composition ratio of 50% by weight of pullulan and 50% by weight of maltose, the substrate sheet is square when viewed from directly above). Was made. Next, it is a rhombus composed of two equilateral triangles with a bottom of 150 μm on the bottom, and a half-shape of a substantially quadrangular pyramid with a perpendicular length of 500 μm from the top to the bottom (the bottom is a regular triangle with a side of 150 μm) In order to fabricate a cantilever having a vertical plate, the upper end of the stainless steel plate (vertical length: 5 mm, horizontal length: 5 mm, thickness: 1 mm) has an inverted shape that is a half-broken shape of the above-mentioned substantially square pyramid. A concave portion is dug by machining, and the deepest end of the cantilever is made into a semicircle (diameter 0.4 μm), and the deepest end of the dug portion is finely processed using a focused ion beam, A mold head for a cantilever was produced. After attaching a predetermined temperature control mechanism and a movable mechanism to the mold head, the mold head held at 80 ° C. is brought into contact with the substrate sheet surface, and anhydrous amorphous maltose and pullulan dissolved at 105 ° C. A composite sugar material (composition ratio of 50% by weight of anhydrous amorphous and 50% by weight of pullulan) was poured into the mold head, and after the cantilever was formed, the mold head was retracted in a direction perpendicular to the substrate sheet surface. A cantilever was prepared on the surface of the substrate sheet as shown in FIG. Next, the mold head is moved laterally at a pitch interval of 250 μm, the mold head is moved forward and brought into contact with the surface of the substrate sheet, and the complex sugar material dissolved at 105 ° C. is molded. Pour into the head, and after forming the cantilever, the mold head was retracted in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate sheet to produce a second cantilever on the surface of the substrate sheet. The above series of operations is repeated, and finally a total of 30 cantilevers with a pitch interval of 250 μm and a total of 30 cantilevers on the surface of the substrate sheet (the cantilever having the above-mentioned substantially quadrangular pyramid shape) A substrate sheet type micro-implement having the structure shown in FIG. However, since FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram, the size of the cantilever and the substrate sheet are not relatively matched. In this manufacturing example, the above-mentioned repetitive operation was required 30 times using one die head for producing a cantilever. However, the inverted shape of six cantilevers in the vertical direction on the die head. When the one having the concave portion is used, the repetitive operation is five times, and it is possible to manufacture the micro-implement very efficiently.
