Combined Traction Force–Atomic Force Microscopy Measurements of Neuronal Cells

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2022
In the course of the development of the nervous system, neuronal cells extend (grow) axons, which navigate over distances of the order of many cell diameters to reach target dendrites from other neurons and establish neuronal circuits.

Contact dynamics from the atomic scale to nanostructured surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The collective mechanical behavior of a multitude of small contacts affects the friction between sliding bodies on the macroscopic scale. The contacts are complicated systems involving many atoms, which are constantly deformed, ruptured and reformed.

Profilometry and atomic force microscopy for surface characterization

open access: yesNano TransMed, 2023
: Aim: This study aims to evaluate and compare the profilometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM) for characterization of biomaterial surfaces. Method: The clinically commonly used titanium (Ti) was used as the specimen. Each of the specimen was prepared

Individual globular domains and domain unfolding visualized in overstretched titin molecules with atomic force microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Titin is a giant elastomeric protein responsible for the generation of passive muscle force. Mechanical force unfolds titin's globular domains, but the exact structure of the overstretched titin molecule is not known.

Optical force microscopy: combining light with atomic force microscopy for nanomaterial identification

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2019
Scanning probe techniques have evolved significantly in recent years to detect surface morphology of materials down to subnanometer resolution, but without revealing spectroscopic information.

Topography and mechanical properties of single molecules of type I collagen using atomic force microscopy

open access: yes, 2005
Although the mechanical behavior of tendon and bone has been studied for decades, there is still relatively little understanding of the molecular basis for their specific properties.

Measuring cell adhesion forces with the atomic force microscope at the molecular level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In the past 25 years many techniques have been developed to characterize cell adhesion and to quantify adhesion forces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to measure forces in the pico-newton range, an experimental technique known as force ...

Atomic Force Microscopy of Phytosterol Based Edible Oleogels

open access: yesGels, 2023
This work reviews the use of atomic force microscopy (AFM) as a tool to investigate oleogels of edible triglyceride oils. Specific attention is given to those oleogels based on phytosterols and their esters, a class of material the authors have studied ...
