PALM MicroTweezers, also known as optical tweezers, is a highly effective
and non-invasive method to trap, move or manipulate microscopic particles such
as cells, crystals, beads or even sub-cellular structures.
The module allows not only the manipulation of microscopic particles with optical
tweezers, but also the quantitative measurement of forces relevant to various
disciplines of life science research.
The intuitive software is easy to use and offers flexible functionality and
experimental freedom ranging from sperm motility measurements to the characterization
of plasma membrane properties, molecular binding forces, or cell elasticity
measurements.
