PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a testing method for accurately grasping the damages generated in a metal material inside a living body and the durability, and to provide its apparatus. SOLUTION: Durability of the metal material for the living body is measured, while a cell is attached to the surface of the metal material for the living body in a cell-culturing vessel and cultured over a long time.
