Our experimental results show that application of an external force leads to a reduction in the stiffness of the zebrafish chorion, and that variation in such a reduction is strongly influenced by the perturbation time. Our results provide evidence supporting the hypothesis that the stiffness of some cellular organism may be modified by the controlled application of an appropriate mechanical force, and demonstrate the potential of force-feedback control in micro/nano-manipulation as a promising engineering technique for studying disease properties and manipulating cellular biological functions. ©2010 IEEE. | Source Title: | 11th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision, ICARCV 2010 | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/51619 | ISBN: | 9781424478132 | DOI: | 10.1109/ICARCV.2010.5707903 |
