Tweezers OT-AFM

Powerful optical tweezers and AFM combination OT-AFM Combi-System The OT-AFM Combi-System pairs the exceptional surface force measurement and imaging capabilities of AFM with the ability of optical tweezers to apply and measure smallest forces in 3D. Comprehensive One-stop nano-toolbox Combines the 3D positioning, detection, and manipulation capabilities of OT with the high-res imaging and surface property characterization abilities of AFM. Powerful Exceptional force measurement capabilities Apply and measure forces in 2D and 3D and from 500 fN to 10 nN on samples ranging from single-molecules to living cells. Nanomanipulation Spectacular live cell applications Trigger cellular response, study cell-cell or cell matrix interactions, immune response, and infection or bacterial/virus/nanoparticle uptake processes. FEATURES NanoWizard and NanoTracker team up – the perfect toolbox for imaging and force applications The OT-AFM Combi-System pairs the exceptional surface force measurement and imaging capabilities of AFM with the ability of optical tweezers to apply and measure smallest forces in 3D. The combined setup fulfills the highest demands on mechanical stability, flexibility, and modularity. A specially designed OT-AFM ConnectorStage is the key to combining any AFM of the NanoWizard or CellHesion family with the NanoTracker optical tweezers on a research-grade inverted optical microscope.
