Zusammenfassung:	A method for quantifying endotoxins in a biological sample with an analysis medium added to the field of view of an imager, the analysis medium including at least one analysis chamber and a plurality of reference chambers, including the steps of, for each of a plurality of measuring times of a measuring period: a) acquiring an image and determining light intensity valves in the reference and analysis chambers; b) determining a calibration relationship connecting the light intensity value and the concentration at this measuring time; c) determination of at least one endotoxin concentration in a biological sample from said calibration relationship and the intensity value in the analysis chamber at said measurement time; the method subsequently including the step of d) determining a temporal evolution of an endotoxin concentration in the biological sample over the course of the measuring period from the endotoxin concentration for a plurality of measurement times.
