Noncontact three-dimensional mapping of intracellular hydromechanical properties by Brillouin microscopy

Noncontact three-dimensional mapping of intracellular hydromechanical properties by Brillouin microscopy

Current measurements of the biomechanical properties of cells require physical contact with cells or lack subcellular resolution. Here we developed a label-free microscopy technique based on Brillouin light scattering that is capable of measuring an intracellular longitudinal modulus with optical re...
