Abstract

In order to quantitatively characterize biological objects, for example individual cells, a stimulus is applied to a biological object () in a contactless fashion. A measurement and a further measurement are performed on the biological object () in order to ascertain a response of the biological object () to the stimulus, wherein the measurement and the further measurement comprise detecting Raman scattering on and/or in the biological object () and/or capturing data using digital holographic microinterferometry (DHMI). The biological object () is characterized according to a result of the measurement and is sorted if needed. The stimulus can be applied by means of a laser beam that creates optical tweezers or an optical trap, by means of ultrasonic waves or an electric or magnetic radio frequency field.
