The present invention relates to a method and system for monitoring and recording a viral infection process and that for screening vaccines, which is characterized by providing a microcantilever detection device, which comprises a microcantilever comprising a contact area having an macromolecular material attached thereon; allowing host cell to be attached to the macromolecular material; allowing a sample containing a test virus or vaccine to be loaded into the contact area to make the test virus or vaccine to contact the host cells attached to the macromolecular material so as to produce a deflection of the microcantilever; and recording the deflection in a time course manner so as to obtain a deflection profile that can used as a basis for determining the viral infection process or the potential efficacy of the vaccines.
