Abstract: We have studied the efficiency of microsurgery of a cell membrane in mesenchymal stem cells and the posterior cell viability under the localised short-time action of femtosecond IR laser pulses aimed at noncontact delivery of specified substances into the cells.

Keywords: femtosecond laser pulses, laser microsurgery, stem cells, optoinjection, cell membrane.
