Research conducted at Shanghai University has updated our knowledge about atomic force microscopy
November 22nd, 2007
Fresh data on atomic force microscopy are presented in the report 'Comparative observation of the recombinant adeno-associated virus 2 using transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy.' "Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a defective, nonpathogenic human parvovirus, which coinfects with a helper adenovirus or herpes virus. AAV's unique characteristics have made it an appealing vector system for gene delivery," investigators in Shanghai, People's Republic of China report. "AAV or recombinant AAV (rAAV) has been widely detected using negative stain transmission electron microscopy (TEM) but little has been detected using atomic force microscopy (AFM). In...
