Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the qualitative and/or quantitative determination of a protein and/or peptide pattern of a fluid sample, which is taken from the human or animal body in order to check the condition of the latter. The peptides and proteins of the fluid sample are prepared and then subjected to an analysis, in which reference and sample values that describe conditions of the human or animal body, in addition to deviations and correlations that have been derived from said values are determined and automatically stored in a database. When a new protein and/or peptide pattern is determined, the database is then searched for the best possible correlations.
