Zusammenfassung, Abstract
This study of biological laboratory is focussed on the biological experiment. By confronting the real conditions of life science experiments with an ideal canon of experimental principles – which is constituted by the six preconceptions of separation, manipulation, control, distance, reproduction and homogeneity – the differences and specialities of biological experimentation are examined. This special constitution of biological experiments in the laboratory is a reaction of the special conditions of biological phenomena too. In a co-evolutionary process of trial-and-error improvement of laboratory actions not only technical points but also natural conditions are impressed on the methodical executions. This special relation between ,,nature\" and ,,art\" can be described in the terms of Merleau-Pontys ,,chiasm\".
