Short summary
Mitochondria are small organelles with key functions inside our cells. Unfortunately, there are a number of diseases that arise from their malfunction. To test whether they are healthy or not, complicated procedures are often required. In the paper, we applied our sensor that detects motion of living microorganisms. We saw that a sensor detecting tiny vibrations is powerful enough to sense the difference between normal and inhibited mitochondria.
