Abstract There are many interesting biological systems that utilize small mechanical forces to achieve functionality. Protein folding, ligand-receptor binding, cellular adhesion, and others all rely on picoNewton sized mechanical forces. In many of these examples, the fundamental character of the interaction remains controversial. In this paper, we describe work in progress to develop micromechanical force-measuring instruments suitable for measurements of these small biologically derived forces.
