Table 2 in Integrative microscopy to explore physical and nanomechanical properties of eggshells of diapausing embryos in Rotifera: a proof-of-concept study

Table 2. Hardness values (GPa × 10−2) for diapausing embryos of Brachionus calyciflorus and Brachionus plicatilis, cysts of Artemia salina, and overwintering eggs of Aedes aegypti measured in this study. Each column represents measurements on two eggs (five measurements per egg).
