Research on micro pressure sensor implanted into transgenic mouse (1st report) design and manufacture of a micro pressure sensor and evaluation of fundamental characteristics

Many researches of the gene using the transgenic mouse have been performed. 600,000 kinds of mice are produced for the elucidation of gene function. For this reason, the microchip for individual discernment for discriminating and managing huge kind of mice must be developed. In this research, the detailed structure and functions of the micro pressure sensor were investigated by the FEM analysis. About 96 kinds of sensors are made by the consideration of analytical results. Fundamental characters of micro pressure sensor to measure the ventricular rate using this device were clarified.
