A mixed culture of labeled B. subtilis and S. sanguinis can be sorted, by their preferred chemoattractants placed in the sink wells of a microfluidic system. a B. subtilis and S.sanguinis were labeled with their corresponding probe complexes and placed in the well called the “original microbial pool.” b the original microbial pool, and Fe and glucose chemoattractants were placed in source and sink wells, respectively.  B. subtilis migrated toward Fe2+ rich sink-well while, d S. sanguinis migrated to the glucose rich sink-well. The source and sink wells are monitored by fluorescent microscopy
