Abstract
The method comprises an automated removal of cells and/or cell colonies from a cell culture whilst executing a first detection step for selecting cells and/or cell colonies with reference to corporeal and/or physical parameters and detecting position data and storing the detected position data of the selected cells and/or cell colonies in a position database. In order to be able to select special cells and/or cell colonies having special properties from the detected cells and/or cell colonies, at least one second detection step for detecting at least one further parameter of the cells and/or cell colonies is then executed, comparative data from the data of the first and second detection step are created, cells and/or cell colonies are selected with reference to the comparative data and the position data from the position database are transferred to a harvesting unit.
