Field notes
CORAL is described as a single printed lattice with tortuous pores that trap bacteria, rather than a capsule relying on electronics, batteries, valves, or moving parts. The stated workflow runs from ingestion and sample recovery to DNA/RNA sequencing and bioinformatics. Corealis reports more than 1,000 capsules fabricated in-house at NYU Abu Dhabi; its claimed 3.5× diversity comparison is not accompanied by methods in the supplied extract.
