Table 3.

The ratio of successful fishing force detection in HeLa cells at low temperature: analysis on the data set of Fig. 3

4 °C 37 °C
Detection of fishing forces over threshold* (n out of 30 trials) 14 9
Detection of fishing force over threshold* (%) 46.7 30.0
Average of fishing force over threshold (nN) ± SD 100.7 ± 69.1 58.8 ± 26.8
S/N** 9.0 4.4

* Threshold equals to (average fishing force of MCF-7 cells as negative control at each temperature) + 4 × (standard deviation)

** Ratio of (average fishing force of HeLa)/(average fishing force of MCF-7)
