Abstract
- An approach for studying the mechanical properties of aggregated cells is developed.
- The mechanical and structural properties of Methanosarcina cells are estimated.
- Cohesive forces of adhered cells and in-aggregate turgor pressure are determined.
- Allows prediction of highly confined polymer state in cell walls.
