Force-Sensing Optical Tweezers and 3D Particle tracking
Optical tweezers enable trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles, microparticles, and biological species in fluid media. Now, JPK's unique Nanotracker™ system extends this technology to enable measurement of interaction forces with sub picoNewton sensitivity. In addition, particles are simultaneously tracked in 3-D to quantify dynamics, viscosity, diffusion and host of other processes.
For the first time, dual beam force-sensing optical tweezers seamlessly integrate on inverted optical microscopes combining advanced optical and confocal techniques including single molecule fluorescence in a small footprint, easy to use system.
Our unique tweezers technology (also known as a Photonic Force Microscope) enables quantification of molecular, cellular and micro-rheological processes. Applications include molecular motor mechanics, binding/elasticity of DNA and proteins, cell membrane dynamics and particle uptake. JPK's Nanotracker™ is set to revolutionize research in biophysics, biochemistry, drug discovery, toxicology and many other fields.
