The adhesion forces between individual molecules of Lewis(X) trisaccharide antigen (Le(X) ) have been measured in water and in calcium solution by using atomic force microscopy (AFM, see graph). These results demonstrate the self-recognition capability of this antigen, and reinforce the hypothesis t
We developed a new apparatus to measure the adhesive force between particles with a high resolution of approximately 2 nN. The force was measured directly by applying a pulling force to the particles with a contact needle. In addition, the separation process was observed with a 3CCD camera during th
## Abstract The atomic force microscope (AFM) and the associated dynamic force spectroscopy technique have been exploited to quantitatively assess the interaction between proteins and their binding to specific ligands and membrane surfaces. In particular, we have studied the specific interaction be
