The custom-built microrheology platform enables the rapid analysis of material viscoelasticity and provides insights into microstructure, emergence of phase transitions, material stability, and the presence of intermolecular interactions. The system includes motorized stages for high-speed scanning through multi-well samples, and imaging- and scattering-based tools for detection of material fluctuations or deformations under loading. User-friendly software facilitates rapid post-processing and data analysis.
