Micropipette aspiration of a living cell

Micropipette Aspiration (MA) is one of the many techniques to study the mechanical properties of a single cell. In MA, micropipette of diameter smaller than the diameter of the cell is used to apply negative pressure to aspirate on the cell. The aspirated length at its equilibrium will then be measu...
