An electromagnetophoretic force has been applied for the measurement of the adsorption force of a single polystyrene particle to a silica surface in electrolyte solutions. By the electromagnetophoretic buoyancy, polystyrene microparticles in a fused-silica capillary were made to migrate perpendicular to the wall of the capillary. A switching of the current direction and a gradual increase of the current under a homogeneous magnetic field of 10 T could desorb the single particle from the wall and allowed us to measure the adsorption force from the desorbing current with a sensitivity of pN. By this method, the adsorption forces of polystyrene particles on a bare surface and on a squalane-coated fused-silica surface were measured in the absence and the presence of surfactants such as Triton X-100, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, and sodium dodecyl sulfate. The observed adsorption forces showed that the roles of the surfactants included not only the reduction of the adsorption force as a spacer, but also the production of a characteristic force due mainly to electrostatic interaction.
