Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method enabling the existence of a biological activity of microorganisms to be determined quickly by applying an electric field. The inventive method includes the following: the microorganisms are placed in a suspension in a dielectric oil, an electric field is applied to said suspension and variations in the strength of the leakage current induced as a function of the applied electric field are measured. The device according to the invention comprises a container which is fitted with electrodes (2), whereby the suspension (3) of microorganisms in a dielectric oil is placed therein, in addition to means for generating an electric field between two or several electrodes, measuring means and means for recording the induced leakage current.
