Active Microrheology of Hydrogels Based on Oscillations Induced by Optical Radiation Pressure

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Using phase-sensitive OCT, we detect sub-nanometer bead oscillation induced by radiation pressure from a low-NA beam in agar hydrogels. Our method may enable characterization of microscale viscoelastic properties, with applications in cell mechanics.
