Janus Emulsions for the Detection of Bacteria

Janus emulsion assays that rely on carbohydrate-lectin binding for the detection of Escherichia coli bacteria are described. Surfactants containing mannose are self-assembled at the surface of Janus droplets to produce particles with lectin binding sites. Janus droplets orient in a vertical directio...
