Tweezers used their meaning is clear to people in the relevant field. E.g., Raman tweezers, which combine Raman spectroscopy with optical tweezers. The main objective of the Hasbro board game "Operation" is to use tweezers attached to the board to remove plastic ailments from their respective cavity openings without them coming in contact with the metal edges, which will let out a buzzing vibration and light up the patient's red lightbulb nose. Tweezers Tweezers are small tools used for picking up objects too small to be easily handled with the human fingers. The word is most likely derived from tongs, pincers,
Molecular tweezers Molecular tweezers Molecular tweezers, and molecular clips, are host molecules with open cavities capable of binding guest molecules. The open cavity of the molecular tweezers may bind guests using non-covalent bonding which includes hydrogen bonding, metal coordination, hydrophobic forces, van der Waals forces, π-π interactions, and/or electrostatic effects. These complexes are a subset of macrocyclic molecular receptors and their structure is that the two "arms" that bind the guest molecule between them are only connected at one end leading to a certain flexibility of these receptor molecules (induced fit model). The term "molecular tweezers" was first used by Whitlock. The
