MFP - 3D - BIO TM
AFM - Atomic Force Microscope
The Only Full-Capability AFM on an Inverted Optical Microscope.
The MFP - 3D - BIO sets the industry standard for combining optical and atomic force microscopies in a single integrated tool specifically designed for biologists.
Optical Integration; High Resolution Imaging; Quantitative Force Measurements; Environmental Controls;
Leadership in Force Spectroscopy and Force Mechanics:
- Simple setup, calibration, acquisition, display and analysis (any chanel vs. any chanel) with easy customization for advanced users.
- Superior 8pm deflectio noise (typical), 20 pm guaranteed.
- Accurate force measurements with no additional hardware required.
- Users can choose between open loop sensored force curves for the ultimate in low noise performance, or closed loop force curves for the most accurate velocity control.
- MacroBuilderTM graphical macro language allows custom force measurements to be easily programmed, even by beginners.
- Large vertical Z range (15µm standart, 40µm available) accommodates demanding applications such as adhesion measurements on cells and very soft gels.
- Force Mapping enables mechanical measurements at a grid of points with automated extraction of material properties such as elastic modulus.
- Force Clamping for single-molecule and bond-rupture force spectroscopy measures unfolding or rupture kinetics under constant force, allowing direct comparison to theoretical models.
- Perpendicular drive, flexured nanoindenter (optional) provides accurate force and displacement control with superior resolution, sensitivity and precision.
