The Right

An optical fiber solution-concentration sensor based on whispering gallery mode (WGM) is proposed in this paper. The WGM solution-concentration sensors were used to measure salt solutions, in which the concentrations ranged from 1% to 25% and the wavelength drifted from the left to the right. The experimental results showed an average sensitivity of approximately 0.372 nm/% and anR2linearity of 0.8835. The proposed WGM sensors are of low cost, feasible for mass production, and durable for solution-concentration sensing.

The Relationship

According to the relationship of glucose content in diabetes saliva and blood, the biosensor for detecting saliva glucose was introduced based on electrochemical detecting principle, glucose oxidase was immobilized onto the surface of electrode by glutaraldehyde cross-linking. The measuring system was designed by using potentiostat for amperometric chemical sensors. The characters of the microsystem has been demonstrated with the detection of standard glucose solution concentration of saliva parameter. Compared with the data obtained from the instrument CHI660A, it showed that has a good linear relation in the linear range of 0-2200µmol/L, with the correlation coefficient of 0.9531.

<p>Glucose must be carefully regulated to ensure its safety and quality. Nowadays, chemists often face difficulty to measure glucose concentrations as the current methods for the analysis are expensive and require complex procedures which have reduced the interest among chemists to use these techniques. This study evaluated the performance of a single mode optical fiber tip sensor for glucose detection. The sensing mechanism mainly depends on the Fresnel’s reflection that occurs at the flat fiber tip region while the sensor performance was evaluated based on its sensitivity and linearity. The sensor was tested in glucose solution at different concentration range; high range (0% - 14%), medium range (0% - 1.4%) and low range (0% - 0.14%). The sensor showed a good performance when sensing the glucose solution at high and medium concentration range with strong linearity of more than 90% and an average sensitivity of 0.0979 dBm/% and 0.1019 dBm/%, respectively. However, the low concentration range showed no significant changes during sensing. Based on the findings obtained in this study, the optical fiber tip sensor has the potential to be utilized for glucose detection and suitable for high and medium concentration range measurement.</p>

The exploration of novel polymers for temperature sensing with high sensitivity has attracted tremendous research interest. Hence, we report a polystyrene-coated optical fiber temperature sensor with high sensitivity. To enhance the temperature sensitivity, flat, thin, smooth, and air bubble-free polystyrene was coated on the edge surface of a single-mode optical fiber, where the coating thickness was varied based on the solution concentration. Three thicknesses of the polystyrene layer were obtained as 2.0, 4.1, and 8.0 μm. The temperature sensor with 2.0 μm thick polystyrene exhibited the highest temperature sensitivity of 439.89 pm °C−1 in the temperature range of 25–100 °C. This could be attributed to the very uniform and thin coating of polystyrene, along with the reasonable coefficient of thermal expansion and thermo-optic coefficient of polystyrene. Overall, the experimental results proved the effectiveness of the proposed polystyrene-coated temperature sensor for accurate temperature measurement.

Spectral Responses

We present the microsphere coupled Mach–Zehnder interference structure. We theoretically calculate that spectral responses of this structure vary with the glucose solution concentrations. It can produce the sharply asymmetric Fano resonance line shape related to the slope between zero and unity transmission. The variation of the normalized transmission is linearly related to the solution concentration. This structure is the promising highly sensitive biochemical sensor due to high quality factor resonance and steep slope over a very narrow frequency range

Lipid Microparticles

The objective of this research was to produce and characterize lipid particles (MpLs) that may be used as carriers of high amounts of hydrophilic core and evaluate the influence of the core amount on the performance of lipid microparticles. The MpLs were produced by spray cooling from solid and liquid lipid mixtures (stearic and oleic fatty acids and partly hydrogenated vegetable fat) containing glucose solution as core and soy lecithin as surfactant. The performance of MpLs was evaluated by means of the effective amount of encapsulated core, the core amount present on the surface of MpLs (superficial glucose) and the core release profile in aqueous solution. Morphological observations showed that MpLs presented spherical shape and a rugged and continuous surface, and an average diameter between 25 and 32 µm. The effective amount of encapsulated core was greater than 78% for all formulations evaluated. Larger amounts of superficial glucose were found in formulations in which more concentrated glucose solutions were used, regardless of the glucose lipid-solution ratio. The release results showed that core retention was significantly influenced by the glucose solution concentration, whereas release modulation was influenced by the glucose lipid-solution ratio.
