A method for assessing cell contraction includes adhering contractile cells to an oxidized and cellular adhesion activated surface of a biocompatible silicone elastomer film. The biocompatible silicone elastomer film allows the cells to contract and wrinkles when the cells contract. Wrinkles in the biocompatible silicone elastomer film formed by contraction of the contractile cells are analyzed to assess cell contraction.
