Abstract
In this paper, a unique non-contact, minimum invasive technique for the assessment of mechanical properties of single cardiac myocyte is presented. The assessment process includes following major steps: (1) attach a micro magnetic bead to the cell to be measured, (2) measure the contractile performance of the cell under the different magnetic field loading, (3) calculate mechanical loading force, and (4) derive the contractile force from the measured contraction data under different magnetic field loading.
