- pluripotent stem cells such as ES cells and iPS cells (in this specification, “ES cells” and “iPS cells” are collectively referred to as “pluripotent stem cells”) have been artificially created. Therefore, a great contribution is expected in fields such as regenerative medicine. Since pluripotent stem cells have the pluripotency that can be differentiated into various cells constituting the living body, by using the patient's own iPS cells, skin, cartilage, bone, blood vessels, It becomes possible to regenerate nerves, organs and the like.
- pluripotent stem cells have pluripotency as described above, some pluripotent stem cells may start to differentiate during the culture. Thus, a cell that has started differentiation cannot be returned to an undifferentiated state again, and cannot be used to create a target organ or organ. Therefore, in the passage of pluripotent stem cells, it is important to determine whether or not the cultured stem cell colonies are undifferentiated, and finally to isolate only undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells.

- noise and images of feeder cells can be removed.
- differentiated colonies and undifferentiated colonies may not be accurately identified because, for example, these filters cannot remove images from large feeder cells.
- the identification of colonies by luminance is based on the following knowledge. That is, as shown in FIG. 1A, when cells or the like are not attached to the bottom surface 10 of the dish, the illumination light 12 passes through the bottom surface 10 of the dish and is hardly scattered and then is used as the imaging light 13 as a camera. Therefore, the obtained image becomes bright. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1B, when pluripotent stem cells or the like are attached to the bottom surface 10 of the dish, the illumination light 12 is scattered by the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells 21a. Become.

- the proportion of the portion other than the nucleus 22 is relatively small compared to the differentiated pluripotent stem cell, and the illumination light 12 is scattered relatively large as shown in FIG. 1 (b). become. Therefore, the imaging light 14 reaching the imaging device 11 is reduced, and the obtained image of the portion of the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cell 21a becomes dark.
- the differentiated pluripotent stem cell as shown in FIG.
- the portion other than the nucleus 22 is relatively large with respect to the nucleus 22, and therefore, the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cell of FIG. 1 (b).
- the scattering received by the illumination light 12 is smaller, and the imaging light 15 reaching the imaging device 11 is increased. Therefore, the obtained image of the portion of the differentiated pluripotent stem cell 21b becomes brighter than in the case of the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cell of FIG.
- the pluripotent stem cells are excessively cultured or the like, as shown in FIG. 1D, in the case of a multi-layer colony in which the pluripotent stem cells 21c are stacked in multiple layers, the illumination light 12 is shown in FIG. ), The imaging light 16 that reaches the imaging device 11 is very small, and the resulting image of the pluripotent stem cell 21c is very dark.
- differentiated pluripotent stem cells are bright and undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells are moderately bright because the appearance of cells varies depending on the illumination method.
- a threshold is set for the brightness of the captured image.
- the first threshold value B1 is used as the threshold value of the boundary between the brightness of the multi-layered pluripotent stem cells and the brightness of the uncertain pluripotent stem cells.
- the second threshold value B2 and the third threshold value B3 are threshold values for the boundary with the luminance of the pluripotent stem cell, and the threshold value for the boundary between the luminance of the undetermined pluripotent stem cell and the luminance of the differentiated pluripotent stem cell is the first threshold value.
- 4 threshold values B4 (B1 ⁇ B2 ⁇ B3 ⁇ B4), respectively.
- the colonies in which all the luminances in the colony contours are B2 ⁇ B ⁇ B3 are undifferentiated colonies, and some luminances in the colony contours Is determined to be a multi-layer colony, and a colony having a luminance of B4 ⁇ B in the outline of the colony is determined to be a differentiated colony, an undifferentiated colony, a multi-layer colony, and a differentiated colony It is determined that the other colonies are indeterminate colonies.
- the fine image refers to a part of the wide-field image represented by the same size as the wide-field image. Since the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cell 21a (FIG. 1 (b)) is smaller than the pluripotent stem cell 21b (FIG. 1 (c)) differentiated as described above, the size of the cell is determined using a fine image. Can be identified as an undifferentiated colony or a differentiated colony.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a procedure for identifying colonies in one embodiment of the present invention.
- a wide field image is acquired by photographing the inside of a dish 41 in which pluripotent stem cells are cultured with a camera 43 through a lid 42 (step 50).

Peeling of all colonies in the culture container is performed by introducing a cell peeling agent into the culture container and then discharging the culture solution from the pipetting device to the entire surface of the culture container.
- a fine image is further acquired for each of the undefined colonies (step 62).
- this fine image is also subjected to the same image processing as the above-described wide-field image.
- the undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells are small, and the differentiated pluripotent stem cells appear large, so if all the cells in the fine image are smaller than the predetermined size, the unidentified colony Is identified as an undifferentiated colony, and if a fine image includes cells larger than a predetermined size, the undefined colony is identified as a differentiated colony including cells that have started differentiation (step 63). ).
