Bioactuators have the advantages that can be driven by only chemical energy, can be designed in the micro scale, and have the high energy efficiency. However there is the trouble that the bioactuators cannot generate enough power as actuators, because the generative force of muscle cells used as driving force is low. In order to solve this trouble, we consider that the generation power improvement of muscle cells by gene manipulation is effective approach as the buildup way of bioactuator's power. Therefore, in this study, it is the purpose to examine the physiologic alteration of genetically-modified mouse's muscle tissue and verify the generation power improvement in the tissue level, as the first stage of the generation power improvement in the cells level. According to measurement result, although contraction force and cross-sectional area increased by about 30%, contraction force per unit cross-sectional area did not vary.
