Single Cell Force Spectroscopy for Quantification of Cellular Adhesion on Surfaces

abstract: Cell adhesion is an important aspect of many biological processes. The atomic force microscope (AFM) has made it possible to quantify the forces involved in cellular adhesion using a technique called single cell force spectroscopy (SCFS). AFM based SCFS offers versatile control over experi...
