Sealing wet porous membranes is a major challenge when fabricating cell encapsulation devices. Herein, we report the development of an Autoclavable Transparent Thermal Cutter (ATTC) for reliably sealing wet nanofibrous membranes. Notably, the ATTC is autoclavable and transparent, thus enabling in situ visualization of the sealing process in a sterile environment and ensuring an appropriate seal. In addition, the ATTC could generate smooth, arbitrary-shaped sealing ends with excellent mechanical properties when sealing PA6, PVDF, and TPU nanofibrous tubes and PP microporous membranes. Importantly, the ATTC could reliably seal wet nanofibrous tubes, which can shoulder a burst pressure up to 313.2 +/- 19.3 kPa without bursting at the sealing ends. Furthermore, the ATTC sealing process is highly compatible with the fabrication of cell encapsulation devices, as verified by viability, proliferation, cell escape, and cell function tests. We believe that the ATTC could be used to reliably seal cell encapsulation devices with minimal side effects.
