An ultrasensitive isometric force transducer for single smooth muscle cell mechanics

P. G. Canaday and F. S. Fay

The principles of operation, design, and performance of a differential photooptical transducer of very high sensitivity are described. Useful range is 10-2,000 mugf with sufficiently low drift to allow recordings of contractile responses of isolated single smooth muscle cells. Comparison with several previous designs is presented.
