Microparticles incorporated with quantum-dot (QD) barcodes for multiplexed bioassays attract a great attention due to their potential applications in drug discovery, gene profiling and clinic diagnostics. However, the existing QD barcodes lack a necessary optical stability to ambient fluids or a rep...
