Force Microscopy: Applications in Biology and Medicine,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A complete examination of the uses of the atomic force microscope in biology and medicineThis cuttingedge text, written by a team of leading experts, is the first detailed examination of the latest, most powerful scanning probe microscope, the atomic force microscope (AFM). Using the AFM, in combination with conventional tools and techniques, readers gain a profound understanding of the cell, subcellular organelles, and biomolecular structure and function.The text begins with three chapters describing the molecular machinery and mechanism of cell secretion and membrane fusion in cells, using approaches that combine AFM, electron microscopy, Xray diffraction, photon correlation spectroscopy, molecular biology, biochemistry, and electrophysiology. The discovery of a new cellular structure the "porosome" or fusion porethe cells secretory machinery, the molecular mechanism of membrane fusion in cells, and the expulsion of intravesicular contents during cell secretion are outlined in the first three chapters. The book also covers:* Identification of the "porosome" in the growth hormone secreting cell of the pituitary gland* Probing the structural and physical properties of microbial cell surfaces* Scanning probe microscopic characterization of the higher plant cell wall and its components* Case studies of nano drug delivery systems using engineered dendrimers* AFM techniques for studying living cells* Investigating the intermolecular forces of leukocyte adhesion molecules* Proteinprotein interactions* Micromechanical properties of lipid bilayers and vesiclesThe text concludes with four chapters that examine new and emerging approaches in the use of force microscopy in biology and medicine.This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students and researchers in cell and molecular biology, genetics, genomics, physiology, neuroscience, biophysics, and biochemistry. Not only does it provide the theory, but also practical considerations such as the selection of the right tools and approach.
