Optical Tweezers: from soft-matter Physics to biological applications

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Optical tweezers have recently emerged as an interesting tool for performing advanced biophysical/biomechanical characterizations of biosystems. We discuss on the application of this emerging technology to various bio-systems, including erythrocytes, liposomes and starfish oocytes.
