Bold Greek letters in matlab latex interpreter

I tried using bold font for the Greek letters in my axis labels in Matlab but they don't seem to work.

For example:

xlabel('\mathbf{\rho}','Interpreter','latex')

I've tried other commands such as \bf but still it doesn't work.

Does anyone know how to get around this?

Thanks!

You can use mbox to have everything in one single equation. Source

xlabel('$\sqrt{\mbox{\boldmath $\rho$}_i}$', 'Interpreter','latex')

Use equation notation (as you would need in LaTeX) $$ and \boldmath

xlabel('\boldmath$\rho$','Interpreter','latex')

\boldmath will make bold everything in the next equation after it, so if you want only only partly bold, then separate the equation

xlabel('\boldmath$\rho$ $_i$','Interpreter','latex')

If you want multiple things bold, the same. Separate the equation and add a \boldmath before each bold section.
