Atomic Force Microscopy Reveals Differences In Mechanical Properties Linked To Cortical Structure In Mouse And Human Oocytes

open access: yesSmall, Volume 21, Issue 29, July 24, 2025.
Using Atomic Force Microscopy, the link between oocyte mechanical properties and actin cortex organization is investigated.
