AFM is a critical for developingnew biotechnological and biomedical applications and evenly crossing the limits ofthe traditional areas of application. A variety of biological samples can be imaged bythe AFM under environments that range from vacuum to ambient to liquid. AFM isnondestructive and nonperturbing, thus can be applied to soft biological samples.AFM topographic imaging has many biophysical applications, including visualizationof chemical properties on surfaces of biological samples under physiologicalconditions, subtle modifications during cell growth or treatment with drugs, andlocalization of specific active site on cells and virus. In the investigations of viruses,AFM is sufficiently incisive and reproducible because even the individual capsomerescan be visualized on the surfaces of both plant and animal viruses. And we could getthe conductivity (electric current distribution) and the modulation of current-voltage(I-V) behavior by conductive-atomic force microscopy (c-AFM). The study of thisproject will focus on nano-scaled mechanical and electrical properties of viral surfacewithin three years.原子力顯微術導電式原子力顯微術流感病毒AFMc-AFMinfluenza virusNano-Mechanical and Nano-Electrical Studies of Influenza Virus
