Figure 23. Morphology of rat aortic smooth muscle cells 48 h after seeding on high-density (A, C, E) and low-density (B, D, F) polyethylene. A, B pristine polymers, C, D plasma-irradiated polymers, E, F polymers irradiated with plasma and subsequently grafted with glycine. Cell membrane stained with Texas Red C2-maleimide, the nuclei counterstained withHoechst 33342. Olympus IX 50 microscope, digital camera DP 70. Bar=200 pm.

Microprobe mappings and measurements of minor element concentrations were obtained at the Analytical Centre of the Mineralogical Laboratory of the Natural History Museum (London) using a CAMECA SX 50 instrument equipped with four wave-length dispersive detectors. Atomic force observations were carried out with a Dimension 3000 microscope (Digital Instrument) using the... 

The thickness of the synthesized brashes was determined by means of ellipsometry performed on a COMPEL Automatic Ellipsometer (InOm Tech, Inc.) at a fixed 70o incidence angle. Refractive index for all polymers was asstrmed to be 1.5. Strrface characterization was performed by Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) in tapping mode on a Dimension 3100 microscope (Digital Irrstruments, Veeco ). Static contact angle measurements were made using a... 

Nanoscale adhesion and friction of PDMS films were quantified by AFM using a Dimension 3000 microscope (Digital Instruments) in contact mode with... 

Thin section Scanner Microscope + digital camera... 

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) obtained in the Rice University, Houston, were investigated in high resolution mode (0.335 nm) using a Philips 420 transmission electron microscope. Digital images were captured at the atomic lev-... 

The STATPack consultation process involves capturing macroscopic and/or microscopic digital images of culfure samples, or possibly original clinical specimens, and sending them electronically to experts at state public health laboratories for consulfafion. STATPack... 

Infrared spectra of hybrid thin films were measured by using a Jasco Model FTIR 410 spectrophotometer. An atomic force microscope (Digital Instrument, Inc., Model DI 5000 AFM) was used to probe the surface morphology of the... 

AFM measurement was performed by using scanning tunneling microscope (Digital Instruments, Inc. Nanoscope-II). 

Structural studies of silica sols films were carried out using atomic force microscopy (AFM) method. The films, were prepared by casting solutions on a rapidly spinned substrate - mica. The film surface was scanned at room temperature and atmospheric pressure using a Nanoscope III atomic-force microscope (Digital Instruments, California). Silicon tips with a constant of elasticity of 50 N/m and a tip radius smaller that 10 nm, vibrated at a resonance frequency of about 320 kHz, were used. 

Microscope observations were carried out using a microscope (Digital microscope VHX-900, VH-ZOOR, Keyence Co., Osaka, Japan).
