Automated DNA Sizing by Atomic Force Microscopy
W a) " NA sizing is one of the most widely used analytical methods in molecular _6 42 biology and biochemistry, and it is a core method for genomic analysis. Many research, • toE health care, and forensic applications rely on DNA sizing. Given the volume of DNA C: sizing done and the associated cost, an increasing need exists for extremely rapid, high. throughput, and inexpensive techniques. Es...
متن کاملAtomic Force Microscopy Application in Biological Research: A Review Study
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a three-dimensional topographic technique with a high atomic resolution to measure surface roughness. AFM is a kind of scanning probe microscope, and its near-field technique is based on the interaction between a sharp tip and the atoms of the sample surface. There are several methods and many ways to modify the tip of the AFM to investigate surface properties, ...
متن کاملNanoimaging of RNA Molecules with Atomic Force Microscopy
Since the introduction of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in 1986, this technology has been widely used for imaging of DNA molecules. More recently, scientists have become increasingly interested in the use of this technique for imaging of RNA molecules as well. In order to accomplish this, it is necessary to establish effective sample preparation procedures for reproducibly obtaining images of R...
متن کاملAtomic force microscopy: seeing molecules of lipid and immunoglobulin.
The atomic force microscope (AFM) can image individual molecules by raster-scanning a sharp tip over a surface. In this paper we present molecular-resolution images of immunoglobulin M (IgM) and of ultraviolet light-polymerized films of the lipid dimethyl-bis(pentacosadiynoyloxyethyl) ammonium bromide ("BRONCO"). The polar head groups of individual lipid molecules can be resolved on the surface...
متن کاملAdsorption geometry determination of single molecules by atomic force microscopy.
We measured the adsorption geometry of single molecules with intramolecular resolution using noncontact atomic force microscopy with functionalized tips. The lateral adsorption position was determined with atomic resolution, adsorption height differences with a precision of 3 pm, and tilts of the molecular plane within 0.2°. The method was applied to five π-conjugated molecules, including three...
