“…52,53 The main concern of the -EIS technique is that differences in impedance profiles between measurements taken with and without a cell's presence are usually small and sometimes unobservable. 51 In the meantime, several microfluidic-based devices have also been developed to measure the mechanical properties of single cells, such as micropipette aspiration, 54,55 electrodeformation, [56][57][58] and optical stretchers. 16,20,59,60 In micropipette aspiration, a cell is deformed by applying negative pressure through an aspiration channel.…”
