Bio-detection techniques require stable, specific and mono-dispersed polymeric microspheres to detect and separate targets of interest. The article mainly focuses on the synthesis of micrometer-size and mono-dispersed polystyrene microspheres by dispersion polymerization. Factors affecting the particle size will be investigated in detail. The particle size increases with the number of carbon in the alkahol, which is used as the solvent. One of the most promising methods to absorb dye molecule is exerting pressure on the PS microspheres. The properties of the dye-doped PS microspheres are verified and used in the field of bio-detection by antibody coating examination and fluorescent spectroscopy.
