“…Investigating systems with both AFM and TEM has become increasingly prevalent. For example, both techniques have been used in conjunction to examine a number of different biological systems: collagen fibrils,22, 23 proteins,24 protein crystals,25 bacteriophage T4,26 rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells,27 DNA with bacteriophage phi 29 connector,28 cartilage,29 polysomes,30 rat calvaria,31 and nanotubular structures in pulmonary surfactant 32. Moreover, the use of both techniques in conjunction is very common in the characterization of polymers, nanostructures, and thin films,33–39 and in studies of colloids and clusters 40.…”
