  • Analysis of Cytoskeleton-Destabilizing Agents by Optimized Optical Navigation and AFM Force Measurements

    Mechanical properties of cells are determined by the dynamic behavior of the cytoskeleton and physical interactions with the environment. The cytoskeleton, composed of actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules, is vital for numerous key cellular processes, such as cell division, vesicle...

  • MIRO 2.0 for BioScope Catalyst

    The new MIRO 2.0 (Microscope Image Registration and Overlay) software completes the compromise-free integration of optical and atomic force microscopy (AFM) by providing the tools necessary to control the combined optical/AFM Bioscope™ Catalyst TM system and analyze the resulting data. MIRO 2.0...

  • Characterizing Anticytoskeletal Drugs with BioScope Catalyst and MIRO

    In the following study, we demonstrate the power of combining atomic force microscopy AFM and fluorescence microscopy techniques to probe real-time, in-situ effects of two highly specific drugs that are able to disrupt different cytoskeleton networks inside living cells. Using Veeco Multiple Image Registration...

  • Functional Imaging

    There is great interest in unraveling action mechanisms of key enzymes in biological processes. In many cases, insight on such molecular events can be derived from conventional biophysical analyses of isolated enzymes and their substrates or protein partners. For example, members of the matrix metalloproteinases...
