Some investigations of ion bombardment effects on plant cell wall surfaces
Recent developments in the field of ion beam bioengineering, for example our own work demonstrating ion beam-induced transfer of exogenous macromolecules into the interior cell region, have underscored the need for a better understanding of the effects of ion bombardment on the cell wall material.

Recent developments in the field of ion beam bioengineering, for example our own work demonstrating ion beam-induced transfer of exogenous macromolecules into the interior cell region, have underscored the need for a better understanding of the effects of ion bombardment on the cell wall material. We describe here, our investigations of ion beam sputtering of plant cell wall material and ion beam-induced damage to the cell wall.
