AFM detection of the stiffness of individual erythrocytes in PBS buffer. A A representative normal erythrocyte. B A representative sickle erythrocyte. Left: topographical mapping; right: Young’s modulus mapping. C Quantitative analysis of Young’s modulus (n = 100; *P < 0.05, ****P < 0.0001). All erythrocytes in this experiment were not fixed by a fixative
