Fig. 5: Automated analysis of microbial community structure using large-area AFM data.
From: Analysis of biofilm assembly by large area automated AFM
Top row: Height map of surface-attached cells with corresponding b height and minor axis distribution histogram and c zoomed-in region marked in (a). d Large orientation map indicating the directional alignment of cells, e orientation distribution histograms and f zoom-in regions that highlight the orientation of the cells (a), g example of a cropped region highlighting the flagella corresponding to the region marked by the blue box in (c). h shows profile height marked in the red box in (g). i The dependence of the area covered by the flagella vs. the area of the region of the entire image in (a) is shown. In red, the fit of the data to the model and dashed magenta shows \({A}_{{\rm{f}}}\propto \sqrt{A}\) dependency.
