Biological applications of AFM Explorer - our experiences

Original language description

This paper reviews some applications of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in biology, mainly from AFM laboratory of Department Experimental Physics using AFM Explorer. We discuss the differences between AFM and electron microscopy and practical limits to using AFM in biology. Topographical and non-topographical studies are reviewed, but we concentrate first of all on topographical studies. In topographical studies, results on molecules, cells or tissues can provide high-resolution images, and allow structural changes to be observed over time. The continuous development of new applications in AFM shows that it is a rapidly maturing technology, which still holds large potential for biological research in the future, specifically in medicine.
