With its ability to explore the surface of the sample by means of
a local scanning probe and its use of dedicated software allows
to be visualize results, atomic force microscopy (AFM) has
revolutionized the study of the smallest aspects of life.

Atomic Force Microscopy in Biomedical Research: Methods and
Protocols proves that this technology is no longer simply
just another form of microscopy but has given rise to a
completely new way of using microscopy that fulfils the dreams of
all microscopists: being able to touch, move, and interact with
the sample while it is being examined, thus making it possible to
discover not only morphological but also chemical and physical
structural information. Covering such topics as molecule imaging,
nanoscale surface analysis and cellular imaging,
force-spectroscopy, investigating drug action, and AFM as a
nanotool, this volume features the most up-to-date techniques
currently in use. Written in the
