Measurement and mapping of cell traction forces on liquid crystal based force transducer

A novel cell traction force transducer based on shear sensitive cholesteryl ester liquid crystals (LCTFT) has been developed. This transducer incorporated with a custom-built cell traction force measurement and mapping (CTFM) software showed improved sensitivity and spatial resolution in sensing tra...
