Strain-Rate Dependence of Elastic Modulus Reveals Silver Nanoparticle Induced Cytotoxicity
Force-displacement measurements are taken at different rates with an atomic force microscope to assess the correlation between cell health and cell viscoelasticity in THP-1 cells that have been treated with a novel drug carrier. A variable indentation-rate viscoelastic analysis, VIVA, is employed to...
