Post-Assay Photogelation Enables Flow-Cytometric Sorting and Recovery of Bacterial Cocultures from Microfluidic Droplets

2026-08-27

Abstract excerpt

High-throughput droplet microfluidics can compartmentalize bacterial interactions, but recovering droplets displaying phenotypes of interest often requires custom fluorescence-activated droplet-sorting instrumentation. Here, we introduce post-assay photogelation to decouple the material requirements of bacterial coculture from those of commercial flow sorting. Bacteria are cocultured in initially aqueous water-in-...
