Abstract:Mechanical tissue properties increasingly serve as pivotal phenotypic characteristics that are subject to change during development or pathological progression. The quantification of such material properties often relies on physical contact between a load-applying probe and an exposed sample surface. For most tissues, these requirements necessitate animal sacrifice, tissue dissection and sectioning. These invasive procedures bear the risk of yielding mechanical properties that do not portray the physiological … Show more
