ABSTRACT
Atomic force microscope (AFM) is a powerful and versatile tool to determine the physical properties of cells. The force-distance curves obtained from AFM experiments can be used to determine the stiffness and viscoelastic properties of cells. Here, we present a protocol for the determination of viscoelasticity from live cells such as Drosophila hemocytes or mouse embryonic stem cells using AFM. This protocol has potential application in determining the physical properties of cells in healthy and diseased conditions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Mote et al. (2020),1 and Singh et al. (2023).2.
