Featuring PeakForce Tapping for Quantitative Bio-Mechanical Property Mapping
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- At the
Sixth AFM BioMed Conference,
Bruker(NASDAQ: BRKR) today announced the release of生物镜解决™, a biological atomic force microscope (bioAFM) that features the highest resolution imaging and most complete cell mechanics capabilities available for use with an inverted optical microscope (IOM). The system incorporates Bruker’s proprietaryPeakforcetapping®technology to enable researchers to achieve both the highest resolution imaging and piconewton level force measurements on biological samples.生物镜解决also provides real-time correlation of atomic force microscopy and optical microscopy data sets to provide unique insights into life sciences research. Ultimately,生物镜解决启用成像和机械性能映射细胞，组织和生物分子结构的生物细节，以前从未在IOM上使用Bioafm观察到。

“For the first time bioAFM analysis can directly correlate high-resolution molecular structures with function on the same cell,” said Dr.
Lewis Francisof the
College of Medicine and Center of NanoHealthat
Swansea University,
United Kingdom. “生物镜解决provides the dynamic range and resolution necessary to allow a deeper understanding of structure-function relationships at cell and tissue surfaces.”
“生物镜解决establishes a new benchmark for high-resolution imaging and cell mechanics characterization capabilities that are fully integrated with optical microscopy,” added David V. Rossi, Executive Vice President and General Manager of
布鲁克的AFM business. “It builds upon our exclusive and leading PeakForce Tapping technology to enable the highest performance bioAFM that researchers of every experience level will find very easy to use.”
“PeakForce攻我的实验室提供了力量control and resolution necessary to produce ground-breaking ligand-receptor interaction maps using functionalized probes on live cells in a very time efficient and controlled way,” commented Professor Dr.
Daniel Mullerof the
Department of Biosystems Science and Engineeringat the ETH Zürich,
Switzerland, about his experience using PeakForce Tapping.
About BioScope Resolve
生物镜解决is an AFM developed specifically for integration with optical microscopy for biological research into cells, tissues and molecules. The new system provides the most complete range of capabilities for cell mechanics and molecular force spectroscopy. Its design enables the highest resolution imaging for all types of biological samples, from cells to biomolecules, making it the new benchmark in high-resolution bioAFM capability. In addition,生物镜解决has complete synchronization with the top inverted optical microscope brands, and provides single-button imaging using proprietaryScanAsyst®技术。研究人员可以利用系统的定量PeakForce QNM®nanomechanics package to map the surfaces of soft biological samples.生物镜解决’smechanical mapping capabilities bridge Force Volume and PeakForce QNM frequencies for the widest range available for force-distance curves on any AFM.生物镜解决还提供了一系列的配件，以保留精致样品的完整性，包括具有清晰的视觉和物理获取样品的载体支撑，具有加热和冷却能力的环境控制以及广泛的预校准的生物学探测器。
