Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a multicellular construct that includes cells and a scaffold. The scaffold is constituted by a layered composite that comprises a gelatin nonwoven containing gelatin as a main component, and a gelatin film containing gelatin as a main component and layered on one surface of the gelatin nonwoven, and the cells are present in at least one of a region on the surface of the gelatin nonwoven and a region inside the nonwoven. The multicellular construct can be produced by arranging the scaffold in a swollen state inside the culture vessel whose inner surface is in the dry state such that the gelatin film of the scaffold is in contact with the inner bottom surface of the culture vessel, dripping a cell suspension onto the gelatin nonwoven of the scaffold, and then culturing the cells. This makes it possible to provide a multicellular construct with high seeding efficiency in which desorption of cells from a scaffold is suppressed, a method for manufacturing the same, a kit for producing the same, and a method for evaluating a compound using the same.
