Abstract
The invention concerns a method for processing magnetic particles, which selectively interact with a substance present in a liquid medium. The particles are collected with a probe () comprising a hollow shield () and a probe magnet () moveable up and down. The lower end of the probe with the collected particles is placed on a release location () of a plate (), below which release location there is a release magnet (). The surface of the release location is dry or has a liquid film or a drop on it. In accordance with the invention, very high concentration ratios can be achieved.
