Abstract
We present fluorescent Janus hydrogel microbeads for continuous glucose sensing with pH calibration. The Janus hydrogel microbeads, that consist of fluorescent glucose and pH sensors, were fabricated with a UV-assisted centrifugal microfluidic device. The microbead can calibrate the pH values of its surroundings and enables accurate measurements of glucose within various pH conditions. As a proof of concept, we succeeded in obtaining the accurate value of glucose concentration in a body-fluid-like sample solution. We believe that our fluorescent microbeads, with pH calibration capability, could be applied to fully implantable sensors for continuous glucose monitoring.
