Figure 3

Mechanical properties of MDCK C11 cells. Elastic moduli were determined by participating labs with and without the application of SNAP (using the deflection sensitivity extracted from AFM thermal spectra with Java applet). Data represent peak value and the width of the histograms of Young’s moduli determined by fitting a Gaussian function locally around the peak value (see Methods section for details). The average and standard deviation of all typical values for each lab (i.e. each cell sample) are depicted as colour bars showing the increased reproducibility of SNAP (green) compared to the conventional (red) one.
