Nanoscopic lipid domain dynamics revealed by atomic force microscopy.
Intrinsic heterogeneities, represented as domain formations in biological membranes, are important to both the structure and function of the membranes. We observed domain formations in mixed lipid bilayers of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), dilauroylphosphatidylcholine (DLPC), and cholesterol (chol) in a fluid environment using an atomic force microscope (AFM). At room temperature, we de...
متن کاملMeasurement of friction coefficients with the atomic force microscope
A new axial method for measuring the friction coefficient with the atomic force microscope is given. This axial method requires no calibration steps and is performed simultaneously with a normal force measurement by measuring the difference between the constant compliance slopes of the extend and retract force curves. The algorithm can be applied retrospectively to extract the friction coeffici...
متن کاملForce Spectroscopy with the Atomic Force Microscope
Introduction and Review Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) Spectroscopy is an AFM based technique to measure, and sometimes control the polarity and strength of the interaction between the AFM tip and the sample. Although the tip-sample interaction may be studied in terms of the energy, the quantity that is measured first is always the tip-sample force, and thus the nomenclature: force spectroscopy....
متن کاملForce-feedback High-speed Atomic Force Microscope
High-speed atomic force microscopy (HSAFM) has enabled researchers to view the nanometer-scale dynamic behavior of individual biological and bio-relevant molecules at a molecular-level resolution under physiologically relevant time scales, which is the realization of a dream in life sciences. These high-speed imaging applications now extend to the cellular/bacterial systems with the use of a sm...
متن کاملScanned-cantilever atomic force microscope
We have developed a 3.6 pm scan range atomic force microscope that scans the cantilever instead of the sample, while the optical-lever detection apparatus remains stationary. The design permits simpler, more adaptable sample mounting, and generally improves ease of use. Software workarounds alleviate the minor effects of spurious signal variations that arise as a result of scanning the cantilev...
