    Abstract: A method of analyzing a sample comprising one or more species of microorganisms can include generating first droplets such that each of one or more microorganisms of a first portion of the sample is encapsulated within one of the first droplets and, for each of one or more aliquots of a second portion of the sample, second droplets such that each of one or more microorganisms of the aliquot is encapsulated within one of the second droplets. First and second sets of data can be captured, the first set indicative of the identity and quantity of encapsulated microorganism(s) of the first portion of the sample and the second set indicative of a phenotypic response of encapsulated microorganism(s) of the aliquot(s) to one or more test reagents. A target species' phenotypic response to the test reagent(s) is determinable at least by referencing the second data set to the first data set.
