IMPLEMENT FOR EVALUATING INTERACTION BETWEEN MATERIAL AND BIO-RELATED SUBSTANCE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an implement capable of carrying out evaluations reflecting features of a substrate material in a material screening process such as an ELISA method used for medical devices. SOLUTION: The implement for evaluating interactions between a coating material and a bio-related substance is inserted into at least depressed portions in a multi-well plate and used for evaluating the interaction between the bio-related substance and the coating material coating a section in the medical device where it comes into contact with a living tissue. The implement is opened at its upper section and has depressed inner spaces capable of containing the bio-related substance that is an object to be evaluated. An inner wall of the inner space is made of the substrate material coated with the material coming into contact with the living tissue in the medical instrument and is composed of at least one cylindrical vessel capable of being coated with the coating material that is the other object to be evaluated.
