Abstract

A solitary protein nanometer-scale pore provides the basis for single molecule mass spectrometry in solution. Individual poly(ethylene glycol) molecules of different mass that enter a nanopore cause distinct and statistically resolved conductance states. The technique shows the potential for measuring detailed properties of individual molecules.
