Cellular Biomechanics Investigated by Atomic Force Microscopy
Living biological cells are highly complex, multifunctional systems whose physical attributes are relatively unknown. Critical functions involving plasticity of cell morphology, connectivity and response to stimuli are proposed to be fundamentally related to the micromechanical character and the ability of the cell to exert directed mechanical signaling. Unique abilities of atomic force microsc...
متن کاملStructural characterization of self-assembled polypeptide films on titanium and glass surfaces by atomic force microscopy.
Chemically modified biomaterial surfaces (titanium and glass) covered with polyelectrolyte self-assembled films formed by the alternating adsorption of cationic poly-L-lysine (PLL) and anionic poly-L-glutamic acid (PGA) were structurally characterized by atomic force microscopy. Complementary information concerning the thickness and layer-by-layer growth of the films was provided by optical wav...
متن کاملPhysics and chemistry of photocatalytic titanium dioxide: Visualization of bactericidal activity using atomic force microscopy
When titanium dioxide (TiO2) is exposed to nearultraviolet light, it exhibits strong bactericidal activity. Anatase phase of TiO2 film was prepared by anodizing pure titanium coupons (substrate). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique was used to image the transformation of titanium surface to TiO2 surface on anodization. We observed wide distribution of TiO2 particles ranging from submicron t...
متن کاملLocal Rheology of Human Neutrophils Investigated Using Atomic Force Microscopy
During the immune response, neutrophils display localized mechanical events by interacting with their environment through the micro-vascular transit, trans-endothelial, and trans-epithelial migration. Nano-mechanical studies of human neutrophils on localized nano-domains could provide the essential information for understanding their immune responsive functions. Using the Atomic Force Microscop...
متن کاملDNA properties investigated by dynamic force microscopy.
In this work, we show that by varying the experimental conditions, the driving amplitude, a dynamic force microscope allows DNA properties to be selectively imaged. The substrate on which the DNA is fixed is a silica surface grafted with silane molecules terminated with amine groups. Use of small oscillation amplitudes favors the attractive interaction between the tip and the sample, while the ...
