Summary

The protocol reported here describes an optical method for flexible manipulation of particles and cells. Using a tapered optical fibre probe launched with a laser at 980-nm wavelength, particles and cells can be stably trapped, targeted driven to designated positions, and flexibly arranged into desired patterns. This method provides a highly potential avenue for highly flexible and precise manipulation of biological objects.
