Portable magnetic tweezers device enables visualization of the three-dimensional microscale deformation of soft biological materials

We have designed and built a magnetic tweezers device that enables the application of calibrated stresses to soft materials while simultaneously measuring their microscale deformation using confocal microscopy. Unlike previous magnetic tweezers designs, our device is entirely portable, allowing easy...
