PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At the Microscopy & Microanalysis (M&M) 2012 Annual Meeting, Bruker today announced the Dimension FastScan Bio™ Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), which enables high-resolution microscopy research in biological dynamics. Breakthrough innovations in the design of the FastScan Bio system have resulted in a fast scanning AFM that allows temporal investigation under physiological operating environments in fluid while exceeding the diffraction limits of optical microscopy. The system also introduces a new user interface making significant strides in ease of use and productivity for biologists. The combination of these and other innovative features on the performance-leading Dimension FastScan™ platform makes FastScan Bio the first commercial AFM that can provide temporal resolution in frames-per-second for live biological sample observations.
