Protocol to measure the membrane tension and bending modulus of cells using optical tweezers and scanning electron microscopy

Summary: The elastic properties of cell membranes, particularly the membrane tension and bending modulus, are known to be key regulators of cellular functions.Here, we present a correlative and integrated tool based on optical tweezers and scanning electron Chamomile microscopy to accurately determine these properties in a variety of cell types.Alt
