Abstract

In this paper, we propose software developed in LabVIEW for parallel control of two digital micromanipulators in order to apply computer-controlled stretch to single cells. The software testing using Wireshark showed one microsecond delay between the start of movement of two micromanipulators. When two micromanipulators moved simultaneously, the coordinate difference was within a range of plus or minus 100 nanometers that is appropriate for biomechanical experiments. Therefore, we believe that developed software can be used to stretch a cell precisely in order to measure its deformation.
