Electrically conductive appendages from the anaerobic bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens
were first observed two decades ago, with genetic and biochemical data suggesting that …

Administration of temperature-responsive drug carriers that release anticancer drugs at high
temperatures can benefit hyperthermia therapies because of the synergistic effect of …

Determination of the tip geometry is a prerequisite to converting the scanning probe
microscope (SPM) from a simple imaging instrument to a tool that can perform width …

High-resolution atomic force microscopy has been applied to the imaging of intact human
ocular mucins in a near-physiological buffer. The mucins displayed a range of lengths from …

Thin films of poly (styrene-b-4-vinylpyridine)(PS4VP)[M n (PS)= 71.9 kg/mol; M n (P4VP)=
30.2 kg/mol] mixed with 1, 5-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) were dip-coated onto flat …

While image quality from instruments such as electron microscopes, light microscopes, and
confocal laser scanning microscopes is mostly influenced by the alignment of optical train …

Amyloidosis is a class of diseases caused by protein aggregation and deposition in various
tissues and organs. In this paper, a yeast amyloid-forming protein Sup35 was used as a …

The tip artifact in atomic force microscopy (AFM) observations of InAs islands was evaluated
quantitatively. The islands were grown in the Stranski–Krastanow mode of molecular beam …

An AFM image would not be the true topography of a surface because of the limitation of a
finite size of the tip. The true topography of the surface can be deduced if we can know the …

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been widely applied in cellular morphology study.
However, morphological information including volume and roughness obtained by AFM are …
