Abstract

Various methods underlying progress of life science which include biophysics of cell and biomembrane are introduced in this chapter. Measurements of bulk system such as X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and optical spectroscopy are changed to observation of specific region by use of imaging technique. Bio-imaging system such as X-ray CT and MRI is developed by need of medical diagnosis.
