DTAF dye concentrations commonly used to measure microscale deformations in biological tissues alter tissue mechanics.

Identification of the deformation mechanisms and specific components underlying the mechanical function of biological tissues requires mechanical testing at multiple levels within the tissue hierarchical structure. Dichlorotriazinylaminofluorescein (DTAF) is a fluorescent dye that is used to visuali...
