Abstract
Inventions covered include methods, systems, and compositions for sample processing, involving morphology-adjustable (e.g., tunable on-demand) functionalized particles. In some embodiments, a method can include distributing a set of functionalized particles, in a first morphological state, across a set of partitions; transitioning the set of functionalized particles, at the set of partitions, from the first morphological state to a second morphological state; transitioning the set of functionalized particles, at the set of partitions, from the second morphological state to a third morphological state, and inducing interactions between the set of functionalized particles and a set of targets, within the set of partitions and according to a set of operations with a set of process fluids.
