FT007 - EncapS for Screening in Ultra-High Throughput
Engineering biology is sometimes a numbers game: the more biological designs you can build and test efficiently, the better your chance to find that superstar strain. This is especially true for strategies that seek to improve strains through unbiased mutation and selection - without the application of targeted genetic engineering.
EncapS is Ginkgo's technology for Encapsulation and Screening in ultra-high throughput. By packaging microbes into nanoliter-scale bioreactors, we can quickly screen for high performance microbes in batches of 100,000 at a time.
