Abstract
The mechanical strength (stiffness) of liposomes affects their cellular uptake efficiency and drug release in drug delivery processes. We recently developed a tip shape evaluation method for improving the precision of liposome stiffness measurement by quantitative imaging (QI)-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). The present study applied our method to the widely-used AFM instruments equipped for intermittent contact (IC)-mode force curve...
