- •
Stable cellular assembly is created by use of laser.
- •
Cellular interaction becomes attractive in crowding polymer solution.
- •
The cell–cell contact keeps the stability even after elimination of polymer.
- •
All of the operations are performed under remote control.
- •
Biological merit to utilize depletion interaction of polymer is argued.
