Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Chemical Sensing
  • Optical Physics

Background:

  • 2-Propanol is a volatile organic compound found in exhaled breath.
  • Elevated levels of 2-propanol can indicate certain diseases.
  • Accurate detection of 2-propanol is crucial for early disease diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel fiber-optic sensor for detecting 2-propanol.
  • To investigate the sensitivity and stability of the developed sensor.
  • To explore the potential of this sensor for non-invasive disease diagnosis.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a microtip structure optical fiber sensor using light-guided induced polymerization.
  • Characterization of the sensor's response to varying concentrations of 2-propanol.
  • Evaluation of sensor stability and resolution.

Main Results:

  • The optimized optical fiber sensor (OFS) measured approximately 15 µm.
  • The OFS demonstrated high sensitivity to 2-propanol (-71.1 ± 2.1 pm/ppm).
  • The sensor exhibited good stability (standard deviation of 0.15 nm) and a resolution of 3.18 ppm.

Conclusions:

  • The developed fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometric sensor is effective for 2-propanol detection.
  • The sensor's sensitivity, stability, and ease of fabrication make it suitable for biomedical applications.
  • This technology holds potential for non-invasive disease detection through biomarker analysis.
