纳米技术杂志：扫描探针显微镜与生物学专辑
[color=blue]【纳米科技世界论坛讯】Andreas Engel (University of Basel, Switzerland) and Mervyn Miles (University of Bristol, UK), share their thoughts on nanotechnology at the interface of cell biology, materials science and medicine, as guest editors of a special issue of the journal [i]Nanotechnology[/i].[/color]
The atomic force microscope (AFM) and related scanning probe microscopes have become resourceful tools to study cells, supramolecular assemblies and single biomolecules, because they allow investigations of such structures in native environments.

Quantitative information has been gathered about the surface structure of membrane proteins to lateral and vertical resolutions of 0.5 nm and 0.1 nm, respectively, about the forces that keep protein–protein and protein–nucleic acid assemblies together as well as single proteins in their native conformation, and about the nanomechanical properties of cells in health and disease. Such progress has been achieved mainly because of constant development of AFM instrumentation and sample preparation methods.

These papers document the creativity and persistence of researchers pursuing the goal to unravel the structure and dynamics of cells, supramolecuar structures and single biomolecules at work. Improved cantilever sensors, novel optical probes, and quantitative data on supports for electrochemical experiments open new avenues for characterizing biological nanomachines down to the single molecule.

Comparative measurements of healthy and metastatic cells promise new methods for early detection of tumors, and possible assessments of drug efficacy. High-speed AFMs document possibilities to monitor crystal growth and to observe large structures at video rate. A wealth of information on amyloid-type fibers as well as on membrane proteins has been gathered by single molecule force spectroscopy—a technology now being automated for large-scale data collection.

油画的升值空间
[size=3][font=宋体][size=12pt]“一幅[url=http://www.7iaoshou.com/]油画[/url]能赚好几万，这个价好多[url=http://www.7iaoshou.com/]国画[/url]卖都卖不出来。[/size][/font][/size][font=Arial][size=12pt]”[/size][/font][font=宋体][size=12pt]近日，从事[/size][/font]
