Zusammenfassung:This disclosure relates to compositions, devices and methods of detecting the presence of molecules and optionally quantifying forces associated with molecular interactions on the surface of cells and other lipids. In certain embodiments, devices disclosed herein can be used to detect forces through cell surface receptors. In other embodiments, the devices can be used to detect the presence or absence of molecules on cells or other particles or detect the changes in cell morphology after ligand receptor binding.
