PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make analyzable, simply at a low cost, adhesive strength under a shearing stress by flowing fluid, concerning various cells seeded on a test material of a plate shape, a film shape, a three-dimensional carrier or the like. SOLUTION: The test material 10 having the cells seeded on its surface is sandwiched between a material loading plate and a presser plate with O-ring 11 and fixed onto a bottom plate 1. A cone holder 20 for supporting a small- diameter transparent cone 23 is fixed in a ring gear 34, and the ring gear is rotated by a motor 30 through a gear 32 supported on a support plate 31. The support plate 31 is fixed rockably to the motor 30, and a cone-plate part can be moved between the temperature-controlled box 43 inside and the outside. The motor 30 is supported movably in the X, Y, Z directions. An objective lens 51 of an erecting-type vertical-light fluorescent microscope 42 is arranged over the cone 61, and the state of the cells seeded on the test material, under liquid flow generated by a cone, is observed in real time by a monitor 60.
