Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a near-infrared laser-induced surface deformation (NIR-LISD) microscope to measure the rheological properties of single living cells in non-destructive and non-contact manner. The LISD method enabled us to extend the upper limit of the frequency for the dynamic viscoelastic measurements of single cells up to 300 kHz compared to c.a. 1 kHz in the use of the conventional methods such as atomic force microscope and optical stretcher. By the extension of the frequency, it was indicated that the LISD method had the potential to discriminate in viscoelastic properties between normal and cancerous cells. Although we needed to pay attention to the thermal damage of the cells in the irradiation of the visible laser, it was shown that the damage was diminished by the application of the infrared laser. Furthermore, we successfully measured the power spectra of single cells by the reflection-type arrangement of the detection system in the NIR-LISD microscope.
