Efficient capture of Salmonella is demonstrated on antibody functionalized highly porous micro‐engineered silicon nitride membranes (microsieves) by combining dead‐end filtration and automated fluorescence imaging for detection, as described in article 1400292 by C. J. M. van Rijn and co‐workers. The work reveals the great potential of coupling bioselective capture and microfiltration for the direct and rapid detection of microorganisms.
