Abstract: The invention relates to a method for analysing an interaction between a first molecule and a second molecule bonded to a particle, including the following steps: contacting the first molecule with the second molecule bonded to the particle under conditions enabling the interaction thereof; applying a predetermined liquid flow to the particle bonded to the second molecule; observing a movement of the particle bonded to the second molecule caused by the applied flow; analysing the interaction according to the movement observed and the applied flow, the particle having a greater hydrodynamic resistance than the first and/or second molecule, and a mass Péclet number of greater than 1. The invention also relates to a device for analysing an interaction between a first molecule and at least one second molecule, as well as to the use of the method or of the device in screening a candidate molecule for developing a drug.
