Recent advances in atomic force microscopy, biomembrane force probe experim
ents, and optical tweezers allow one to measure the response of single mole
cules to mechanical stress with high precision. Such experiments, due to li
mited spatial resolution, typically access only one single force value in a
continuous force profile that characterizes the molecular response along a
reaction coordinate. We develop a theory that allows one to reconstruct fo
rce profiles from force spectra obtained from measurements at varying loadi
ng rates, without requiring increased resolution. We show that spectra obta
ined from measurements with different spring constants contain complementar
y information.
