Abstract:
Scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) is developing on the base of near-field optical theory and SPM technique, and producing the highest optical resolution to break through the diffraction limit. It is able to study cellular ultrastructure, function and interaction between biomolecules without destructing the living cells. Recent advances in applying SNOM to cellular and molecular biology were introduced in this review.
