HS-AFM video of Covid’s Docking Method

Johannes Kepler University in Linz Austria has published a High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy video of human lectin CLEC4G binding to glycans on a SARS-CoV-2 spike. This video was recorded by Daniel Canena and Peter Hinterdorfer and is, according to the two researchers, the first short film of the active structure the virus uses to attach to cell

Congratulations!

NanoWorld Ultra-Short AFM Cantilevers of the USC-F1.2-k0.15 type were used for the HS-AFM video.
