Cation-Specific Effects on the Self-Assembly of Collagen Molecules Mediated by Acetate on Mica Surface Observed with Atomic Force Microscopy

<div>Typical AFM height images of collagen fibrils assembled on mica surface at 20 <i>μ</i>g/mL collagen in the presence of different concentration of MgAc<sub>2</sub>: (a) 50, (b) 100, (c) 300, and (d) 400 mM. Scale bar = 0.4 <i>μ</i>m.</div>
