A recent article by Matthias Rief, Filipp Oesterhelt. Berthold Heymann, and Hermann Gaub concluded with this sentence: "Single molecule force spectroscopy by AFM has proven to be a powerful addition to the nanoscopic piconewton toolbox," Everything about that conclusion is tiny. Clearly, the atomic force microscope (AFM) has given us a tool to examine structure at or near the atomic level. Earlier work from Gaub's laboratory, reviewed in this column, demonstrated that the AFM could directly measure the binding force between single molecules of biotin and avidin. This established that the AFM could be used as a tool to measure forces, not just observe structure. Their most recent experiments has added to this tiny toolbox.

Single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) using an atomic force microscope is a common method in the study of ligand–receptor interactions, adhesion events and protein folding. ForSDAT is a platform for automated data analysis of SMFS data.
