Induced Core‐Shell Transformation in Agarose‐Chitosan Nanoreactor Beads Enable Single Channel Coding for dPCR Multiplexing

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Hybrid agarose–chitosan beads undergo a pH‐dependent reorganization into stable core–shell structures upon heating. The resulting tunable optical shell/core contrasts enable bead‐based coding for multiplex PCR. This approach allows sample multiplexing with simple detection systems and functionally exploits a previously unrecognized structure‐forming ...
