SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING OPTICALLY TAGGED BEADS

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for generating and processing optically tagged beads. A nucleic acid probe comprising a fluorescent tag may be hybridized to a bead to generate an optically tagged bead. The nucleic acid probe hybridized to the optically tagged bead may be detectable by one or more signals and may be substantially unreactive to one or more chemical reactions performed with, or in the presence of, the optically tagged bead.
