    摘要: The present invention is concerned with an automated method for obtaining at least one discrete colony from microorganisms or cells comprised in a solution. This method includes a step where acoustic liquid transfer is employed. The present invention further relates to the use of an acoustic liquid transfer device for obtaining at least one discrete colony from micro organisms or cells comprised in a solution. The present invention also relates to an automated method for determining the presence and/or quantity of microorganisms or cells potentially comprised in a solution and to the use of an acoustic liquid transfer device for determining the presence and/or quantity of microorganisms or cells potentially comprised in a solution.
