Sorting a large UV mutagenesis library. a Bulk lactate production measured in microtiter plate. Parent strain SAA023 is compared to the non-sorted UV-generated mixture and the droplet-sorted fraction (n = 5). Data represents technical replicates (the same sorted fraction screened for lactate at different days after sorting). Lactate production is normalized to that of the non-sorted population in each experiment and is shown as average ± SEM (n = 5). b Lactate production in droplets of the non-sorted (gray) and the sorted fraction (green); n = 30,000 droplets analyzed per sample, y-axis is broken. A clear enrichment of high-producing strains is observed
