Microgrippers are used in cell manipulation, micro-assembly, and material characterization.
However, rarely a systematic approach is presented for microgripper design. The current …

The normal development and maturation of oocytes and sperm, the formation of fertilized
ova, the implantation of early embryos, and the growth and development of foetuses are the …

Compared to robotic injection of suspended cells (eg, embryos and oocytes), fewer attempts
were made to automate the injection of adherent cells (eg, cancer cells and cardiomyocytes) …

In this paper, a robotic cell rotation method based on the minimum rotation force is
presented to adjust oocyte orientation in biological applications. In this method, the minimum …

Objective: The invisibility of domestic oocyte nucleus in bright field currently forces operators
to blindly aspirate nucleus out in oocyte enucleation, usually causing large cytoplasm losses …

As there are significant variations of cell elasticity among individual cells, measuring the
elasticity of batch cells is required for obtaining statistical results of cell elasticity. At present …

Nuclear transplantation is an effective method for processing, modifying, and reconstructing
cells, which is widely used in biological experiments. Microinjections and extractions are key …

The development of microgrippers requires accurate control of force and position for the
grasping mechanisms in micromanipulation. This controllability ensures the safe transfer of …

The development of objective biomarkers for the qualitative assessment of oocytes prior to in-
vitro fertilisation procedures is crucial, and in this respect the mechanical response of cells …

Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), referred to as somatic cell cloning, is a pivotal
biotechnological technique utilized across various applications. Although robotic SCNT is …
