Subscripts and greek letters on a cell array

Hello I'm trying to create the following table, in which there are some elements that contain the greek letter µ and also some subscripts such as in K_2HPO_4. However I don't manage to display them in a proper way. Do you have an idea on how to fix it?

sum= (8+8+6+2.9+1.33/2+1.33/2+1.33/2+1.33/2+1.7+1.7);

Peg=num2str(round(8/sum*2/3*2/2.6, 3));

Pep=num2str(round(8/sum*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Trolo=num2str(round(6/sum*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Mix=num2str(round(2.9/sum*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Gluco=num2str(round(1.33/(2*sum)*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Dtt=num2str(round(1.33/(2*sum)*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Cat=num2str(round(1.33/(2*sum)*2/3*2/2.6,3));

GO=num2str(round(1.33/(2*sum)*2/3*2/2.6,3));

ATpp=num2str(round(1.7/sum*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Pkl=num2str(round(1.7/sum*2/3*2/2.6,3));

Streptavidin=num2str(round(1/11*10/sum*2/2.5,3));

Kinesin=num2str(round(10/11*10/sum*2/2.6,3));

Microtubules=num2str(round(0.5/2.6,3));

head={'Compound','Stock solution','% v/v'}

Compound={'M2B'; 'PEG';'PEP';'trolox'; 'MIX'; 'Glucose'; 'DTT';'Catalase';

'Glucose Oxydase'; 'ATP'; 'PKLDH'; 'Streptavidin'; 'Kinesin'; 'Microtubules'};

Vv=['-----';Peg; Pep; Trolo; Mix; Gluco; Dtt; Cat; GO; ATpp; Pkl; Streptavidin; Kinesin; Microtubules];

stock={'80mM Pipes + 2mM MgCl_2 + 1mM EGTA ';'12% w/w';'200 mM';'20 mM in 20mM (K_2HPO_4)';'933 uL M2B + 67 \mu L MgCl_2(1M)';

'300mg/ml in 20mM K_2HPO_4 + 70mM KCl'; '0.5 M';'3.5 mg/ml in 20mM K_2HPO_4 + 100mM KCl';

'20mg/ml in 20mM K_2HPO_4'; '50 mM'; '600-1000 units/mL';'0.352 mg/ml' ;'0.07 mg/mL'; '8mg/mL'};

Vv=cellstr(Vv);

T = table(Compound,stock,Vv);

figure (1)

uitable('Data',T{:,:},'ColumnName',head , 'RowName',T.Properties.RowNames,'Units', 'Normalized', 'Position',[0, 0, 1, 1]);

Hi Martina,

You can refer the answer thread here to learn more about displaying Greek characters in the UITABLE/UICONTROL.

Refer the answer here for storing special characters into a string. For Greek letter ‘u’ the example is as follows,

mu = cellstr(char(956));

The above will store it into a cell array.

Refer the answer here for entering subscripts in UITABLE/UICONTROL using HTML
