Abstract
A method and also a device is proposed for identification of a substance, preferably comprising biochemical molecules. In a first step a probe and said substance will be brought into contact, afterwards in a second step the probe and said substance will be withdrawn from each other, while measuring the value of at least one physical parameter characterizing the interaction between said probe and said substance and comparing said measured value with a reference value for identification.
