A method and apparatus for measurement of mass of small sample sizes. The method and apparatus is particularly adapted for providing microbalance measurement of solid materials as part of a combinatorial research program. The method and apparatus contemplate a system (100) including one resonator, or a plurality of resonators in a resonator array (110), adapted to monitor the response of a sample to a change in environmental condition, and correlating the response with mass change in the samples. |
