Abstract: A method and device for transfecting a cell to introduce an exogenous material into the cell. The method includes exposing the cell to a region of unsteady flow in the presence of an electric field to encourage introduction of the exogenous material into a cell without lysing the cell.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and means for enhancing lipase activity. The system makes use of an emulsion for in vitro compartmentalization of a library of synthetic compounds which have a polynucleotide linked to a lipase substrate (e.g., a triglyceride). Expressed polypeptides having greater lipase activity will preferentially hydrolyze the substrate from the linked polynucleotide. Genes encoding polypeptides having less lipase activity will remain linked to the substrate and may be removed to enrich the library for more active variants. Also described are synthetic compounds and emulsions which can be used in the methods.

Abstract: The present invention provides conjugates of DNA and cells by linking the DNA to a native functional group on the cell surface. The cells can be without cell walls or can have cell walls. The modified cells can be linked to a substrate surface and used in assay or bioreactors.
