Lawn of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells

Lawn of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells

Intermittent contact AFM image of a lawn of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.
CI-AFM topographic image of three nanotubes

CI-AFM topographic image of three nanotubes

High-resolution conductive-imaging atomic force microscopy (CI-AFM) topographic image of a junction site showing the intersection of three nanotubes. The height increases at the junction point as the overlying tube intersects the other two tubes. The junction resistance is heavily dependent on the diameter and the number of tubes at the junction

Figure 1: The principle of nanoscale dispensing (NADIS) in a liquid environment. The AFM tip with integrated channels is brought into gentle contact with a soft specimen, such as a biological cell and an external pressure controller (not shown) allows a small quantity of liquid to be dispensed.

Social networking

Find Us on FacebookM&A Facebook Group

The M&A Facebook group aims to provide an informal resource for microscopists to keep up-to-date with what's happening at M&A, and also a forum to facilitate discussions centred upon areas of interest such as SPM, electron and light microscopy.

This is the place to meet the M&A team, make new contacts, find details of shows we are attending and learn about other events in the microscopy world.
