Material Binding Microorganisms In article 2100282, Arum Han and colleagues develop a novel centrifugal force‐based microfluidic system for the discovery of material binding microorganisms and peptides. Under precise and accurate centrifugal control over shear force during binding and wash steps, microorganisms with peptides displayed on the cell surface are differentially isolated based on their affinity for a target material (here: gold).
