Development of a novel cell traction force transducer based on cholesteryl ester liquid crystals. Characterisation, quantification and evaluation of a cholesteryl ester liquid crystal based single cell force transducer system.
… cell traction force transducer system based on cholesteryl ester lyotropic liquid crystals (LCTFT) was developed to sense localised traction forces of human keratinocyte cell lines (HaCaTs), in which the length of the deformation line induced represents the intensity of the CTF exerted. The …

Investigation of the physical properties of cholesteryl ester liquid crystal and the interaction with cells
Cholesteryl ester liquid crystals (CELC) were demonstrated with application in biosensing and microtissue regeneration. The affinity of the cells to this liquid crystal is unclear and required further investigation. This study focused on characterising the physical properties of CELC and …
