Mycobacterium under AFM tip: Advantages of polyelectrolyte modified substrate

Immobilization of bacterial cells onto surfaces is critical for imaging with an atomic force microscope. In this paper, polyethylenimine (PEI) coated silicon plates are shown to be suitable for immobilizing and imaging Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
