Protocol for measuring weak cellular traction forces using well-controlled ultra-soft polyacrylamide gels

Traction force microscopy (TFM) is a popular technique for studying cellular stresses; however, the reproducible fabrication of ultrasoft substrates for the reliable detection of weak cellular stresses (below 100 Pa) remains a challenge. Here, we describe a simple in vitro TFM protocol using such ul...
