Atomic force microscopy of cotton fiber cell wall surfaces in air and water: quantitative and qualitative aspects

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum cv. MD51) fiber cell walls were analyzed with an atomic force microscope to determine the effect of chemical treatments on cell wall organization and topography. Analysis of fibers in either air or water and without any staining or coating produced high-resolution images o...
