Cells in vivo mechanically interact with the local microenvironment, stressing the important role of cell mechanical properties in cellular behaviours. We built a phase-modulated surface acoustic wave microfluidic device measuring cellular compressibility (or bulk modulus) and a microfluidic micropipette-aspiration device measuring cellular Young’s modulus, facilitating the investigations of cellular elastic properties and cytoskeletal mechanics.
