    Abstract: The cell structure producing apparatus capable of properly piercing a cell aggregate and a cell tray are demanded. The object of the present invention is achieved by a cell structure producing apparatus that includes a movable needle-shaped body and sticks and penetrates a cell aggregate held on a cell tray, wherein the cell tray includes a frame having an opening, and a porous member that is supported at the opening by the frame and on which the cell aggregate is placeable, and a tip of the needle-shaped body is capable of penetrating through the porous member when the needle-shaped body sticks and penetrates the cell aggregate.

    Abstract: In an evaluation method, first, spheroids obtained by three-dimensional culture of multiple kinds of liver-derived cells are imaged by optical coherence photography, a localization region is extracted from the photographic image, the localization region is analyzed (analysis step), and the condition of the spheroid is evaluated. The analysis step includes a first calculation step of calculating the area of the entire spheroid in the photographic image, a second calculation step of calculating the area of the localization region, a third calculation step of calculating the ratio of the localization region on the basis of the two areas, and a fourth calculation step of calculating an evaluation parameter on the basis of the ratio.
