Traditional Force Volume (Force curve array) model is a widely used in biomechanics research of effective technology.For molecular and cellular how to respond to mechanical stimulation or are interested in applying forces on the environment of the researchers, can use AFM to obtain the high accuracy force - a two-dimensional array of distance measurement.Force change and the morphology image can be obtained, as well as any point force curve.
Brooke's FastForce Volume expanded the traditional technology, can maintain the pN in the trigger force and the force - distance measurement frequency of more than 100 hz, and image acquisition speed can be increased by more than 10 times, and narrowPeakForce Tapping ®The gap between adopted by frequency.Therefore, FastForce Volume and PeakForce Tapping can study the combination of soft biological samples and polymers and other materials in hz in the mechanical properties under the kilohertz.
With high precisionPeakForce QNM ®Kit, new FastForce Volume model without reference sample can also provide quantitative nano mechanics data immediately.Thanks to brooke's preliminary calibration probes, they work in the software process integration and in FastForce Volume mode the real-time and off-line display performance diagram of flexibility, makes the calibration data acquisition is simple and easy to use.
At present, the Force Volume Mapping quantitative performance including real-time and off-line calculation.Samples containing DMT modulus, tip - adhesive force and is suitable for soft biological sample Sneddon modulus model,.
In the nano mechanics suite of brooke, Force Volume is a valuable traditional technology.The Force Volume users will also want to try new mode of transformational PeakForce QNM.
We are very like FASTForce volumes.Force curve of speed and accuracy of left a deep impression on us.We easily from 10 to 150 Hz starting on cells have moderate bending machine, curve looks very good, flat, baseline pixel density is good too.
