Microrheological Characterization of Collagen Systems: From Molecular Solutions to Fibrillar Gels
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the extracellular matrix (ECM), where its structural organization conveys mechanical information to cells. Using optical-tweezers-based microrheology, we investigated mechanical properties both of collagen molecules at a range of concentrations in acidic solu...
