Linear elastic model with a cell modulus of 5.3 kPa provides the best fit to the data for cell deformation in 1.2% and 2% alginate gel. (a) The results of three different linear elastic models with effective moduli (Ecell) of 3, 5.3, and 8 kPa are shown against the experimental data from Fig. 1 (26). (b) The corresponding R values for these and other models are plotted against modulus, indicating that the highest R value corresponds to a cell modulus of 5.3 kPa.
