Biomechanical properties of murine meniscus surface via AFM-based nanoindentation

This study aimed to quantify the biomechanical properties of murine meniscus surface. Atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based nanoindentation was performed on the central region, proximal side of menisci from 6- to 24-week old male C57BL/6 mice using microspherical tips (R[subscript tip]≈5 µm) in PBS. A...
