Abstract: A process for carrying out functional assays on test cells is described comprising the following steps: a) providing an array of measuring points which are separate from each other and to which in each case capture molecules to which said test cells can bind are immobilized, b) generating a mixture of said test cells and of reference particles which are capable of binding to said capture molecules and which are distinguishable from said test cells, c) contacting the mixture of step b) with the array so that test cells and reference particles can bind to each measuring point, and d) determining the ratio of bound test cells of interest to bound reference particles for at least some of the measuring points. In a further process, at least one measuring point with its assigned capture molecules is distributed between a plurality of measuring areas in the array, which are arranged at various sites in said array.

Abstract: A method for determining a first physicochemical property of at least two compounds relative to each other is described which uses a second physicochemical property, whereby determination of the first property depends on a third, undetermined physical property, and the first property depends on the composition of the respective compound. Determination of the second property depends on the third property as well, but the second property does not depend on the composition of the respective compound. For each compound a first value for the first property is measured under certain, preferably equilibrium conditions, and simultaneously a second value for the second physical property under said certain conditions is measured. The first property for each compound relative to the other compound is determined by using the first and second values.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for determining the concentration/amount of analyte molecules in the sample.
