From: Laser cavitation rheology for measurement of elastic moduli and failure strain within hydrogels
Hydrogel rupture created by LCR. Material failure produced by a single laser generated cavitation bubble produced within a (a) 6% PEG (600) DA and (b) 2.5 mg mL−1 fibrin hydrogel as revealed by laser-scanning reflectance confocal microscopy. Both samples were irradiated by a single Ep = 12 µJ laser pulse resulting in cavitation bubble formation and subsequent material failure. Scale Bar = 20 µm.
