Zusammenfassung:An ex vivo method of analysing a biological sample comprising a plurality of label-free cells to determine whether or not the sample includes cells that are infected by an infective agent includes optically trapping a label-free cell in the biological sample with an optical beam and spectroscopically investigating the trapped label-free cell to determine in real-time if the trapped label-free cell is infected by an infective agent.
