Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, in order to directly measure the interaction force acting on living microbial cells using an atomic force microscope (AFM), we investigated immobilization of one microbial cell or one nanoparticle at the tip of the AFM cantilever. As a result, we demonstrated that a single cell probe on which one living cell is immobilized or a single nanoparticle probe on which one nanoparticle is immobilized could be prepared if the change in free energy when a cell or a nanoparticle adheres to the AFM cantilever is negative.
