Development of scanning probe microscopy in biomedical fields.

在本项目中，我们研究了以下三种扫描探针显微镜（SPM）技术在生物领域的适用性：1)原子力显微镜（AFM）在液体中的实时成像2)扫描离子电导显微镜（SICM） 3) AFM操纵器的操作。我们的研究结果表明，这些技术在显微解剖学领域是有用的，有望成为细胞和组织成像和操作的有力工具。

In this project, we studied applicability of the following three techniques of scanning probe microscopy(SPM) to biological fields : 1) Real-time imaging in liquid by atomic force microscopy(AFM) 2) Scanning ion-conductance microscopy(SICM) 3) Manipulation using AFM manipulators Our results showed that these techniques are useful in the field of microscopic anatomy and expected to become powerful tools for imaging and manipulation of cells and tissues.
