A piezoelectric force transducer for single muscle cells.

A cantilevered piezoelectric force transducer is described. The cantilevered element has a 6-mm glass extension that can be projected into a horizontal muscle bath from above. By adjusting the length of the piezoelectric bar from 1 to 4 mm, the sensitivity of the device can be varied between 25 and 100 mV/mN (0.25--1.0 mV/mg) with its resonant frequency varying inversely between 8 and 15 kHz. Although moderately fragile, the sensing elements are inexpensive and easily made. The output of the sensing element is amplified by a small, unity-gain, high-input-resistance amplifier mounted on a support block with the element. Although the arrangement does not provide a DC output, its time constant of over 500 s is sufficiently long for measuring tension during muscle contractions lasting 1--2 s.

An ultrasensitive isometric force transducer for single smooth muscle cell mechanics.

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.
