a Distribution of initial compliance Jo for each MCF7 cell stretched (n = 514), based on the power law model. The dotted line represents the cumulative distribution. b Distribution of the power law exponent β. The average β here was found to be 0.85 ± 0.03. c. Average compliance curve for 11 MCF7 cells stretched using 1.5 W per fibre, showing more typical viscoelastic features than the cells stretched at 0.7 W per fibre as in the main text. d Distribution of the average refractive index obtained for 89 cells. Here, the population average is 1.374 ± 0.002.
