ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method for characterising and optionally separating molecular associates, especially particles having a size smaller than 300 nm. Partial units of the molecular associates are used as markers, whereby said units are marked with fluorescent dyes. The marked associates and aggregates are characterised by means of a FACS (fluorescence-activated cell sorter).
