Abstract
This paper presents a high-throughput continuous-flow microfluidic sorting system for customizable bacterial cellulose (BC) production. Gluconacetobacter xylinus was encapsulated in agarose hydrogel particle using droplet based microfluidics for a long-time static culture to generate BC. A real time image analysis system was then applied to distinguish the hydrogel particles according to their BC content by the light scattering pattern. This sorting device could select the target hydrogel particles containing bacteria capable of producing high BC volume for downstream genome analysis.
