Nanopore tweezers: voltage controlled trapping of analytes for nanopore sensing

In recent years, a wide number of single-molecule protocols and devices based on nanopore technology have been proposed in literature [1-3]. The working principle of nanopore sensing (also referred as resistive pulse) is actually very simple. A nanopore connects two chambers containing an electrolyte solution. When a voltage is applied between the chambers a ionic current sets in. ... ...
