Dynamic force spectroscopy for quantifying single-molecule organo–mineral interactions

Organo–mineral interactions have long been the focus in the fields of biomineralization and geomineralization, since such interactions not only modulate the dynamics of crystal nucleation and growth but may also change crystal phases, morphologies, and structures.

How strong are hydrogen bonds in the peptide model?

We provide a methodology based on the steered molecular dynamics simulations and dynamic force spectroscopy calculations to determine the kinetic and energetic characteristics of hydrogen bonds.

A QCM-based rupture event scanning technique as a simple and reliable approach to study the kinetics of DNA duplex dissociation

Rupture event scanning (REVS) is applied for the first time within an approach based on dynamic force spectroscopy.
