Quantifying Ultrasonic Deformation of Cell Membranes with Ultra-High-Speed Imaging
Marek A., De Grazia A., Régal X., CARUGO D., Pierron F.
We present a new method for controllable loading of cell models in an ultrasonic (20 kHz) regime. The protocol is based on the inertial-based ultrasonic shaking test and allows to deform cells in the range of few mm/m to help understand potential consequences of repeated loading characteristic of ultrasonic cutting.
