Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation.

AFM images are generated by the mechanical motion of a fine tip in close proximity to a sample surface. Charge density, physical topography, magnetic field and other surface properties interact with ...

Biological samples are often analyzed using atomic force microscopes (AFM), as they deliver a high resolution and are capable of operating under a range of physiological conditions. Using AFM fixed ...
