'''Tunable Resistiveresistive Pulsepulse Sensingsensing''' ('''TRPS''') is a technique that allows high-throughput single particle measurements as colloids and/or biomolecular analytes are driven through a size-tunable [[nanopore]], one at a time.<ref>Dynamically resizable nanometre-scale apertures for molecular sensing"; Stephen J.

The technique adapts the principle of resistive pulse-sensing, which monitors current flow through an aperture, combined with the use of tunable nanopore technology, allowing the passage of ionic current and particles to be regulated by adjusting the pore size.<ref>Roberts et al.
