Cell penetration efficiency analysis of different atomic force microscopy nanoneedles into living cells

Abstract Over the last decade, nanoneedle-based systems have demonstrated to be extremely useful in cell biology. They can be used as nanotools for drug delivery, biosensing or biomolecular recognition inside cells; or they can be employed to select and sort in parallel a large number of living cell...
