Mechanochemical study of single living cells and biomolecules combining optical tweezers and raman spectroscopy

This thesis is devoted to the study of mechanochemistry of single cells and single biomolecules. Mechanochemistry relates to the association of mechanical and chemical occurrence at the molecular level. Using a combination of microrheological measurements and Raman spectroscopy based on optical twe...
