One bottleneck in binder generation is the scalable, quantitative characterization of these interactions. We present ADAPT-M (ffinity etermination by daptation of roein binders for icrofluidics), a streamlined workflow that connects yeast surface display (YSD) with affinity and kinetic measurements using the high-throughput STAMMPPING microfluidic platform. ADAPT-M quantifies s and dissociation kinetic parameters for hundreds of enriched protein variants in under one week without requiring hands-on protein purification. We applied ADAPT-M to a computationally designed library targeting the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 receptor binding domain, successfully recovering and measuring s for most highly enriched YSD variants. Measurements correlate strongly with biolayer interferometry and yeast titration assays. ADAPT-M further enabled selection of lead candidates for structural and mutational analysis, which revealed designed paratopes were preserved despite binding to off-target epitopes. By bridging YSD screening and validation, ADAPT-M accelerates protein binder discovery and supports data-driven protein engineering.
