A study of the effect of exogenous hazardous agents or conditions on the mechanical characteristics of vocal fold mucosa should meet three methodological criteria. 1) The outer surface of the mucosa should be exposed to the agent or condition while the inner surface is exposed to a physiological environment. 2) Even slight changes in mechanical characteristics should be detected. 3) The applied strain should be within physiological ranges. To date, no such method has been described in the literature. A method meeting the listed criteria is proposed and evaluated here.
