We have developed a microencapsulation selection method which allows the rapid and quantitative screening of >10 6 yeast cells for enhanced secretion of Aspergillus awamori glucoamylase. The method provides a 400‐fold single‐pass enrichment for high‐secreting mutants, and can be straightforwardly adapted for application to growth‐based selection schemes with other microorganisms and enzymes. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
