Abstract
A mixed Langmuir-Blodgett film constituted of behenic acid and glucose oxidase transferred on HOPG has been studied by scanning force micros copy at microscopic and nanoscopic scales; the results concerning the structures observed at the atomic scale are discussed in reference wit h a model. At the molecular level, it was possible to observe the arra ngement of enzyme molecules and their individual structure revealing t heir two subunits.
