Cell Separation is important in various biomedical fields. We have prepared gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-embedded collagen gels as a visible-light-responsive cell scaffold in which photoinduced single cell detachment occurs through local thermal denaturation of the collagen gel via the photothermal effect of AuNP. Physicochemical properties of collagen materials depend on the origin of the collagen and the presence of telopeptides. In this study, we prepared various AuNP-embedded collagen gels by using different collagen materials with and without the telopeptides to compare their thermal denaturation properties and photoinduced single cell detachment behaviors. Cellmatrix type I-C without telopeptides exhibited a lower denaturation temperature than Cellmatrix type I-A and Atelocell IAC, as examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, rheological analysis, and sol-gel transition observation. Three-dimensional (3D) laser microscopic imaging revealed that collagen fibers shrank in Cellmatrix type I-A upon heating, but collagen fibers disappeared in Cellmatrix type I-C upon heating. Cells cultured on the Cellmatrix type I-C-based AuNP-embedded collagen gel detached with shorter photoirradiation than on the Cellmatrix type I-A-based AuNP-embedded collagen gel, suggesting that collagen gels without telopeptides are suitable for a photoinduced single cell detachment system.
