A process for isolating microorganisms is disclosed. The process utilizes a device comprising an inner surface, an outer surface, a first port, and a second port, wherein the inner surface comprises an unmodified, smooth glass substrate and defines a binding chamber providing fluid communication between the first port and second port. Microorganisms in an aqueous solution are contacted with the unmodified, smooth glass substrate, wherein the solution is essentially free of cell precipitants, and the microorganisms are allowed to bind to the glass substrate. |
