Research Abstract |
The electrochemical-based biolithography technique was integrated into an ordinary atomic force microscope (AFM) configuration to pattern proteins and living cells. The patterning procedure could readily be built into an AFM system using a simply fabricated electrochemical AFM probe with an AA-size dry battery. This system enabled us to decrease the pattern size and to image the electrochemically treated surface in situ. Also, in-situ directional control of cell extension was demonstrated.
