Narrow-Gap Rheometry: A Novel Method for Measuring Cell Mechanics

The viscoelastic properties of a cell cytoskeleton contain abundant information about the state of a cell. Cells show a response to a specific environment or an administered drug through changes in their viscoelastic properties. Studies of single cells have shown that chemical agents that interact w...
