Measurements of extension from the liquid and dried Sundew adhesive. A) Attachment of the cantilever to the surface of the liquid adhesive. B) Horizontal extension of the liquid adhesive achieved by manually moving the cantilever in the X-direction with the stage controls. C) Force curve generated on a bare silicon wafer with an extension of 49.2 nm. In both force curves, the blue line is the approach curve, while the red line is the retraction curve. D) Force curve from the Sundew scaffold shows the extension length of 320.6 nm.
