Cantilever can be used not only for mechanical sensors and probes, but also for bio/chemical sensors
1.1. How Cantilever as a Sensing Platform?
Cantilever-mass micromachining structures have been long-period used in MEMS inertial sensors: Accelerometers and Gyroscopes, etc.

• In an inertial sensor, the spring deformation is forced by a seismic mass, i.e. a bulk effect
• In a bio/chemical sensing cantilever, the seismic mass is no use but surface effect becomes to work

Two sensing interfaces: both contribute to sensitivity/selectivity in different ways
Science, 1997 by IBM Zurich reported that self-assembly of SAM on Au surface generates nano-mechanical surface-stress that was measured by a micro-cantilever and signal read out by an AFM photonic detector.
Although studies have tried to find the origin of surface-stress generation, the molecule-level mechanism on the self-assembly induced surface-stress is still ambiguous.
During the chemical sensing experiment in last section, using ammonia to replace the tri-methylamine vapor in the experiment results in no significant frequency-shift measured. Though their chemical principles are similar, apparently the size of the ammonia molecule is much smaller than that of the tri-methylamine.
Thus, the mechanism of surface-stress generation during specific molecules binding on a solid surface is strongly dependent of the molecule size or other principles.

How to know the surface-stress value induced by a certain specific molecule binding? Only be experimental results? Is there and design model?
By now no people in the world knows it in details? You can try and publish the results in Science or Nature
