Screening and isolation of polyethylene-degrading bacteria from landfill sites using droplet microfluidics
In this webinar, Professor James and his PhD student George will showcase a high-throughput screening approach for identifying putative plastic-degrading taxa from landfill environments, leveraging our platform’s droplet formation, sorting, and isolation capabilities. Speakers:James McDonaldProfessor at the University of BirminghamGeorge… READ MORE
Capturing the variation in growth and stress of environmental bacterial subcommunities in response to chlorine using high-throughput fluorescent activated sorting of droplets.
Abstract:Authors: Ayo Ogundero & William T SloanAffiliation: Infrastructure and Environment, School of Engineering, University of Glasgow ———————–Chlorination is standard practice in water treatment systems to kill microorganisms and maintain water quality. However, this treatment has been shown to increase the… READ MORE
A High-Throughput Droplet-Based Microfluidics Platform for Novel Enzyme Discovery and Engineering
Droplet-based microfluidics has proven itself to be a powerful tool for the discovery and engineering of enzymes. By miniaturizing assays within droplets to the pL scale, microfluidics enables the screening of large genetic libraries with substantially less substrate use compared… READ MORE
