Operation of core-shell-bead-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR). (A) (1) Placing a droplet of photopolymer on top of an amphiphobic powder bed. (2) Inserting the PCR solution into the deposited droplet. (3) Covering the droplet with amphiphobic powder. (B) Photo polymerization of the droplet under blue light in a drum rotating at 140 rpm. (C) Transferring the generated core-shell bead to a custom-built thermal cycler for amplification. (D) Discriminating the core shell beads containing amplicons based on fluorescent intensity.
