摘要：

Ways of characterizing single-molecule events are rapidly emerging in the biochemical sciences. One such line of research now shows how measurement of ionic transport through a single, atomic-scale pore in an insulating membrane can distinguish between organic molecules of relative molecular mass as low as 100; remarkably, a single protein channel can be adapted for simultaneous analysis of a mixture of organic molecules.
