Description
Abstract
A novel natural biomass pollen-derived multicolor barcode is fabricated by depositing the quantum dots (QDs) on the monodisperse sunflower pollens through a layer-by-layer process. Taking advantage of the exquisite prickly surface morphology and an intrinsic high surface-to-volume ratio of the pollens, the resultant barcodes exhibited a much stronger fluorescence signal. Besides, the easily-tunable fluorescence peak and intensity of QDs and the repeatable deposition process allowed for the generation of coding combinations for the simultaneous determination of multiple targets, showing their potential in multiplexed bioassays.
