[Applications of atomic force microscopy in tissue engineering].
In recent years, the applications of atomic force microscopy (AFM) have underpinned the fast progress in the area of tissue engineering. Besides the study of surface morphology in the dimension of micro- and nano-, AFM has played an important role in the fabrication of micro- and nano-structure as well as in the investigation of mechanical properties of material and cell. This overview is aimed to introduce the principle of AFM and to review its recent applications in tissue engineering.
