Abstract

As digital data undergo explosive growth, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has emerged as a promising storage medium due to its high density, longevity, and ease of replication, offering vast potential in data storage solutions. This study focuses on the protection and retrieval of data during the DNA storage process, developing a technique that employs flow cytometry sorting (FCS) to segregate multicolored fluorescent DNA microparticles encoded with data and facilitating efficient random access. Moreover, the encapsulated fluorescent DNA microparticles, formed through layer-by-layer self-assembly, preserve structural and sequence integrity even under harsh conditions while also supporting a high-density DNA payload. Experimental results have shown that the encoded data can still be successfully recovered from encapsulated DNA microparticles following de-encapsulation. We also successfully demonstrated the automated encapsulation process of fluorescent DNA microparticles using a microfluidic chip. This research provides an innovative approach to the long-term stability and random readability of DNA data storage.
