The morphology of the specific face growth of sodium chloride (NaCI) crystal on the mica surface was analyzed using atomic force microscope (AFM). The supersaturation of the NaCI was induced to lead to the crystal nucleation and growth by the addition of methylalcohol. The effects of methylalcohol concentration and mica surface functionality on the NaCI crystal growth morphology were investigated.

In current study, we report the direct interaction force comparison for a synthesized peptide probe to actin and cofilin protein to actin using atomic force microscopy. The peptide probe was synthesized following the actin binding module of cofilin protein. Thus, the functionality of the peptide probe was similar with that of the cofilin protein.
