This volume introduces the revolutionary field of microbial single-cell omics, a suite of cutting-edge techniques that uncover the genetic, functional, and metabolic signatures of individual microbial cells. From the discovery of new microbial lineages to decoding virus-host interactions, this book highlights the transformative impact of single-cell genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics.

With expert protocols and innovative workflows, the book provides practical guidance on fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), microfluidic encapsulation, and advanced genome amplification techniques. It also explores targeted methods, like FISH-FACS for recovering rare microbes, activity-based cell separation, and multi-omics approaches that integrate genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data. The authors discuss future developments and the immense benefits of analysing and understanding microbes one cell at a time, offering a glimpse into how this knowledge can transform microbial ecology, biomedicine, and biotechnology.
