A report on the study of electronic properties of thin molecular layers or molecular self-assembly using local probe techniques. The central theme of this paper is a discussion of the problems, difficulties, and contrast mechanisms associated with STM imaging of biomolecules.
4. Schabert FA, Engel A: Reproducible acquisition of Escherichia coli porin surface topographs by atomic force microscopy. Biophys J 1994, 67:2394-2403. Presents the conditions, established by systematic experimental analysis, that allow topographs of the Escherichia coli OmpF porin lattice to be acquired in solution at subnanometer resolution. In addition, the limitations of the ATM technique and some of the difficulties encountered are clearly described. This paper serves as a good introduction to those who intend to use high-resolution AFM for imaging biologically relevant materials.
