Recently, much research has been performed involving the mechanical analysis of
biological and polymeric samples with the use of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Such …

AFM-based force–distance curves are commonly used to characterize the nanomechanical
properties of live cells. The transformation of these curves into nanomechanical properties …

Countless biophysical studies have sought distinct markers in the cellular mechanical
response that could be linked to morphogenesis, homeostasis, and disease. Here, an …

Probe-induced soft sample damage in atomic force microscopy (AFM), as well as the
resulting alteration of local mechanical and electrical properties of the material are explored …

Viscoelastic characterization of materials at the micro-and the nanoscale is commonly
performed with the aid of force–distance relationships acquired using atomic force …

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) force-distance (FD) experiments have emerged as an
attractive alternative to traditional micro-rheology measurement techniques owing to their …

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a widely use technique to acquire topographical,
