The present methods and apparatus concern the detection and/or identification of target analytes using probe molecules. In various embodiments of the invention, the probes or analytes are attached to one or more cantilevers. Binding of a probe to an analyte results in deflection of the cantilever, detected...http://www.google.com/patents/US7270952?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US7270952 - Detecting molecular binding by monitoring feedback controlled cantilever deflections
