A multiplexed magnetic tweezer with precision particle tracking and bi-directional force control

Abstract Background In the past two decades, methods have been developed to measure the mechanical properties of single biomolecules. One of these methods, Magnetic tweezers, is amenable to acquisition of data on many single molecules simultaneously, but to take full advantage of this "multiple...
