Abstract

Abstract : The Front Cover shows direct monitoring of real‐time activity of bacterial growth at the single‐cell level inside giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs); entrapped single bacterial cells are actively increasing to a great number of cells inside GUVs. This study shows new applications for GUVs, and can offer a novel tool for culturing bacteria in bacterial studies. More information can be found in the Communication by M. Morita et al. onpage 845 in Issue 11, 2018 (DOI:10.1002/open.201800126 ).
